Yep, about the only news I’ve heard about Iraq has been about the successful elections. It’s certainly gotten very quiet.

Go to MySA.com and hit Military. Because San Antonio is a military town with four bases, we have alot of news re: Iraq, Afghanistan and the military one does not see anywhere else. It is an excellent source for positive stories about the soldiers also.
We have a journalist here, Sig Christenson, who has recently been in Iraq. He has written excellent articles about the war and the soldiers. He and the soldiers often become friends and they stay in touch with him. You might want to read his stories on MySA.com
