We're extremely proud, not only that he chooses to serve and continues to seek the most difficult training he can get, but also of what he's accomplished. When

War isn't pretty and doesn't happen overnight. Everyone expected Iraq to buckle and institute a Democracy overnight like this is some Hollywood movie, but it doesn't work that way. A lot of people have seen WWII movies like Saving Private Ryan, but apparently they've never really
seen them. When compared to every other major engagement our Country has been involved in, our casualties are shockingly low.
