Faces of the Fallen

The Army Times, a civilian newspaper that is sold mainly on military bases and thus reaches the prime wartime audience, uses eight pages of its year-end review, out now, to run photos of all those who have died in Iraq and Afghanistan, except 35.  ...
 There were 506 killed by the time the newspaper closed last Friday. Since then, another seven have died. The newspaper has said this is the deadliest year for the U.S. military since 1972, when 640 were killed in Vietnam.

In introducing the pictures, under the headline "Faces of the Fallen," the Army Times said: "More than 500 service members died in operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring Freedom in 2003, a group that represents the full, rich face of American diversity.

Perhaps a moment of silence this New Year's Eve to honor those our aWol leader sent to their deaths?
It's good to see there is at least one publication willing to remember these soldiers fallen in 2003. Damned chickenhawks need skewered daily on this issue!
