New War Funding Estimates. As of enactment of H.R. 2642, the FY2008
Supplemental, funds appropriated since the 9/11 attacks to DOD, State/USAID and
VA for medical costs for the wars in Iraq, Afghanistan and enhanced security total
$859 billion. This total includes:
! $653 billion for Iraq;
! $172 billion for Afghanistan;
! $28 billion for enhanced security; and
! $5 billion unallocated (see Tables 2, 3, and 4).
Of this total, 76% if for Iraq, 20% for Afghanistan, 3% for enhanced security and 1%
unallocated. Almost all of the funding for Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) is for
Afghanistan.
