am i the only one who sees a difference here?
And, btw for anybody wondering, the soldiers in Iraq are less likely to be hurt or killed while they are in Iraq then when they are home (over the same periods of time) due to the lowered risks related to booze and traffic accidents.

Didn't it take something like 2 years or so before there were as many US casualties in Vietnam as there have been in Iraq so far?
