Seems a lot longer than five years to me. And in actuality, since we never really left Iraq after the Kuwait rescue operation in 1992, America has been at war in Iraq for 16 years. Oh well, we were in Viet Nam for almost 25 years. Must be good to be a defense contractor.
RIP Clay we miss you SOOO much everyday, and RIP to every one that has given their life in serving for their country. I cant believe its been 5 years. my bestfriend just got his orders to iraq for october 5th, i wish that this war would end... :-/, i know why i joined the Navy what my reasons where, and when i got sent home (injury) i still know that this war is for freedom, but i start to question, is this war benefitting usa anymore? :(
