Written by someone I know, personally, that JUST came back from IRAQ yesterday. He was there almost since the war started.
"Had a friend die today, somewhere about 100 miles from here in an anonymous bomb on the side of the road. He was high up in the chain, but I knew him as a man, my other friend has to go there and drag the bodies to their final resting place. What does it matter... there you go, theres my story, its tragic, its futile, violent and angry. You all know you don't want to hear of carnage, you want to hear of heroism, bravery, well being scared shitless and having no one to turn to is plenty scary. "
