    He was a First Lieutenant in the Army...4th Infantry Division...thirty years old...small arms fire killed him...he served in both Iraq and Afghanistan. He died for an ungrateful country that refuses to even discuss the war in which he sacrificed his life.

    why does the congress refuse to hold hearings to bring in the generals to explain to the public whether what Col Davis is writing is right or wrong

    the vietnam war was finally ended when the public became aware that it was a lost cause. my speculation is the congress fears the same result will occur if they ask the generals the questions which now deserve to be asked. if Col Davis' allegations are found to be wrong, then that will buttress our current strategy in afghanistan. but if it is seen that Col. Davis is giving us the truth, then it would be obvious the time to come home was yesterday
    As an infantry vet with a 15 month afghan deployment, I can wholly confirm and assert, that the war in afghanistan is unwinnable, and a waste of human life. That country is a sinkhole. They own the high ground, they own the people, and they are far more dedicated to the cause than we are.

    The sooner we figure this out, pack our things and head home, the better.

    Sorry. There have been a bunch of deaths in countries in the Centcom region in support of OEF. I'll limit reporting to deaths occurring in Afghanistan and to deaths resulting from incidents occurring in Afghanistan. Maybe Pakistan too.

    They died together. One was a 25 year old Sgt. from California. The other was a 22 year old Pfc. from Missouri. An improvised explosive device killed them. It happened on May 13, 2012 in a god forsaken place called Bowri Tana. They were with the 25th Infantry Division. The 25th has been taking casualties lately.
