Re: Its A Sad Thing...
BeenThere,
I watched 60 minutes last night---a segment about the soldiers who are not 'counted' or listed as casualites---friendly fire, accidents, nervous breakdowns, illnesses,all all other manner of disasters, all of which occurred during their service to the country-there are roughly 25,000 of them...not even acknowledged, no accurate count....US government is correct thinking that if they count them, there will be less support for the war... they were heartbreaking and heartbroken that their own government won't acknowledge them... and doesn't even consider them casualties of war...

Jennifer,
Its the equivalent of abondaning a child...
Because of the events happening I am a little disgusted as to where this country is heading..I can smell a draft..
The fact that I am 18 brings about my "chance" of being drafted..(I signed up to defend for a purpose worthy, not attacking others over meaningless bullshit)
If/when I do get drafted, I'd like to thank you all, and Richard and his family, especially for providing me with joy and happiness throughout my life.
Hopefully my enrollment in college will keep me here a little longer.
(Better believe I'm bringin' my Pryor CDs with my Player going overseas. Comedy for the troops!)

Re: Its A Sad Thing...
astonamous,
That helps. But, can you explain why my cousin, only 19 is over in Iraq? I don't even understand the situation..
He was never in the military/armed forces before..
He was in College..
And he's below the age you said they would start at for drafting in '05.
Plus, he send me letters about how he hates it, and how he dispises Bush for forcing him over to Iraq, basically, to die.
To Jennifer,
I appreciate the kind words.
