and one part of her show that always gets to me is when she remembers a service member that has lost their life in the war. More than half of the people she talks about are under 30 years old. She talks about the family, whether married or not, that they are leaving behind and what they liked to do in their free time. Some of them died in 2009, 2010, and last year. Today the number of U.S casualties was at 6,559. It leaves one to wonder, when is that number going to stop going up, if it ever does stop and what is that final number from the Iraq/Afghanistan war going to be? Who will it be? When will this end?
okay all done with my random babble

Nothing good comes out of war.. my dad was in the Army for twenty years and had to go overseas shortly after 9/11. First Kuwait and then Iraq.. He has struggled with PSTD and still does. It’s not easy. Nobody knows how it is until they’ve lived with it or know it first hand….
