U.S. Troops Weather a Third Year in Iraq, With American Death Toll Approaching 2,000 By Antonio Castaneda Associated Press Writer Published: Oct 22, 2005 BAQOUBA, Iraq (AP) - One night on the outskirts of this restive city, a few dozen U.S. soldiers exited a movie theater on a military base, the smell of popcorn wafting from the doors as a few complained about the film. Only a few miles away soldiers in the chilly night scanned the distance from an outpost deep in the city, peering through the darkness with night vision goggles for signs of insurgents who have steadily attacked their position throughout the year. As U.S forces approach a dark milestone of 2,000 American dead since the war began in March 2003, many say morale has remained high, bolstered by the need to protect each other, by concentrating on their daily assigned tasks - and by amenities provided by the military to keep life in a war zone as normal as possible. continued..................... ap.tbo.com
