I almost did. I'm glad casualties are lower, too, but I think they should be published daily on the front page of the paper. The body counts and cost of the war, should be front page daily news, not something you have to go digging around obscure websites to find!

People your age are experiencing a taste of what we went through during the Vietnam fiasco. At least these troops have public support.

I HATE this war and I want our men and women to come home as much as anyone else. Im just glad we don't have headlines like we did in WWII. I wasn't born, Im 26, but I study alot, and I know that Americans had to read "12,000 dead in First Day at the Battle of Iwo Jima" Im not saying that 3500 or so is a small number, 2 would be 2 too many for this war, Im just saying "Thank goodness for small favors" thats all. I hope no one takes this the wrong way........

I thought the 3842 was a bit low. I remember Kadandesaga posting 3838 a while back.
