In a move reminiscent of the first Thanksgiving, base leaders invited local residents — Iraqi government and military leaders — to celebrate alongside them.

“It’s a great day for us,” said Iraqi Army Maj. Gen. Anwer H. Amen, of 2nd Brigade, 4th Division in Kirkuk. “The coalition guys, they liberated our country. I’m going to pray for the American nation. I am asking God to save all the Americans, from the bottom of my heart.”

It's truly breathtaking observing how pathetic and unimaginative the PR war is being fought.

If this was the best the US army could have come up with in WWII we would all be speaking German.

“I am thankful for my Lord and saviour Jesus Christ,” said Air Force Master Sgt. Steve Felderman, 40, of St. Anne, Ill.

Someone contact the ACLU!! There is a "God-believer" in the military...and Jesus is mentioned in a government publication!!
