Balad, Fallujah..and there are two other towns that come up over and over again.
I don't understand how you can have that many wounded in Balad, especially when you know what to expect in that town. I hope they weren't on foot walking a patrol
Prayers to the soldier that was lost.

God be with all of them. This is the hardest news to hear and my heart goes out to their families. Maybe we should just put a fence up around these towns and ship in food every two weeks. I'm getting fed up with this.

FOX just said that there was a morter attack on a base that injured the 19 and the 1 death was from a sniper round.
Prayers for our warriors and their families.
I pray everyday for an end to these attacks.

All I want is one BIG "accidental" "firework" explosion in the center of Bagdad, takeing everything out in its way for mmmm... lets say the Isreal's Eastern border. Of course I want a total troop withdrawel before this "accident" might occur.
