let me put things in perspective for you...
WW1- 4 years 50,000 died
WW2- 4 years 400,000 died
Civil war- 600,000 died
Iraq- 5 years 3,000 died

i am not saying that it is good that people are dying i just don't understand how you can think we are loosing! GOD BLESS THOSE WHO SERVE AND HAVE SERVED :)!!!!!

Should our troops come home? I personally think they should have come home 2 years ago. I think it was fine for us to be there before then but I wonder if we really have a purpose now. It seems pointless for our troops to be dying in Iraq for no purpose. Should we be shoving democracy at a country that doesn't want it and knows nothing about it? Or do they really want it? Are we fighting to protect the lives of the people in Iraq like the many that Saddam killed?

I'd like support for your opinions and if you are willing I wouldn't mind a source too. I'm doing a report comparing the Vietnam War to the war in Iraq and I can't believe how little I knew about what's going on.

I have a fiance and one new born and she has a 5 yr old daughter. Which branch would best fit me? I was thinking the Air Force but was not sure. I have some college and school loans to pay off. I was wanting to get into law enforement or something to do with house construction or computers. My program in college was Secondary Education for History, anything in the branches for that? Please no silly answers, just please give me straight forward facts. THANKS!

I searched through the AR 670-1, and I couldn't find the answer to this.

Are boot knives authorized with BDU/ACU's. I would think so, but I have heard different stories. With the answer, please provide the regulation and where I can find it. No offense, but I would rather not just take someone's word for it.

I have to do a report comparing and contrasting the Vietnam War and the war in Iraq. What would be the best place to get my information? Wikipedia can be edited by too many people for me to feel comfortable using it for a report even though it has the best format.

if i were him i wouldn't go to my family cause that would be to obvious....and perhaps the tunnels in afghanistan are mostly blown away or being monitored...as for pakistan well their governemtn denies he is anywhere in pakistan. And what about other neighboring countries? I here Iran has helped al queda so why wouldn't that governemtn be rpoviding refuge for him or helping him? Anyway if you know please tell the state department...cause they might just pay you the 50 million dollar bounty on his head...that is if it is still that much or perhpas it is more than that now!

IF George W Bush is even considering sending in 30-40,000 US troops into Iraq, why..

a) doesn't he re-focus his mind onto sending at least 10,000 of those additional troops BACK to AFGHANISTAN to replace some of the 77% of US troops he withdrew after succeeding in getting UK military help of troops on the ground to fight the REAL "war on terror" in AFGHANISTAN.. NOT Iraq - contrary to popular belief today !

b) why doesn't Tony Bliar (sic) have the courage to withdraw 77% of UK troops out of AFGHANISTAN so they can have some MUCH needed rest due to being so grossly under-manned and under-resourced, should his mate George W Bush go ahead with his advisors plans to augment US troop numbers in Iraq leaving UK troops to return home in body bags whilst trying valiantly to sort out the mess it has been placed in by its own UK Govt.?

Anybody out there a proud military SO? (significant other) If so what branch.
Remember OPSEC, don't say anything else, meaning no date, rank, operations, specifics, MOS's! Keep our troops safe.

And please keep your political views to yourself to those who are opposed, I understand this is an open forum but pelase don't bash onthe troops, it is not their fault they are there. Write a letter to your senators if you are not happy!

I'm putting this question in the military section of this site to get a different perspective. I was involved in a relationship with a soilder 5 years ago while he was located in my state. Our relationship was great, but it ended because I was scared of commitment at the time. We stayed friends, but as he went back and forth to Iraq, I lost contact with him. Recently I found him again. He's currently in Iraq (3rd time) and he will be leaving both Iraq and the Army in November. He'll be returning to his home state (4 states away). I have always wanted a second chance with him (especially since I'm not afraid of commitment now) and I do feel that despite the committment fears, together the 2 of us were a force to be reckoned with. I want to tell him exactly how I feel and ask him for a second chance (distance is of no issue to me) but is now the time? I don't want to wait any longer to share my feelings, but I don't know if thats something that I should place on him while he's deployed.

Keep in mind that the allies lost over 10,000 people on D-Day alone.

Sounds like a pointless military disaster overseas, to me. Given certain people's standards...

We all know that these "sanctions" on any country rarely works, whether countries place them or the UN; they very rarely do anything but p*ss the isolated country off. And in most cases its a power hungry dictator, and they will do the most idiotic things if you piss them off haha.

The main point is; should the US, Japan, and S Korea do something other than these little "sanctions" to make sure Kim Jung Il knows he needs to cut it off, or to MAKE him cut it off? Obviously if hes planning another Nuclear Test, then the sanctions are doing absolutely nothing that affects him.

Also, what would China and Russia do if US, Japan, and South Korea were to make a militarial assault on N Korea? From what Ive read and seen, China and Russia are starting to have some land issues.

Would China take N Koreas side again? And if they did, would Russia take the oppurtunity to grab its land back from China while China was pre-occupied?

So..
-Should they take action?
-What would China and Russia do?
