We gotta make shure the whole town doesn't find out about this!
That’s the bad part. An increase in the aggressiveness of our troops will cause both an increase in casualities on the enemy - but also on our brave forces. And even if its 10 or 20 to one ratio, all we will hear about is “deadliest month ever, etc.”.
And it is awful and terrible to hear the bad news of our guys getting hurt and killed. But with none of the good news to offset it, of course all that people will come away with is “what a waste”.
And prayers not just for the guys on the front lines, but all the folks making the “big” decisions that they might be the correct and long-lasting ones.
