Veterans face huge hurdles when returning home

I remeber when I was in alot of my fellow soldiers were married, this is especially tough during deployments, it leads to bad feelings and atleast in my case an unfaithful spouse. Whats worse the war alone? Being at war and having the person who you love tell you it over via the mail. The old "Dear John" letter you have heard about.

The good news is this generation of soldiers are even mre deicated to the country and each other.

Backlog of over 400000 for Veterans Benefits

I am not meaning to sound like a whiner here but come on people. I suggest we hire some more people for the VA.

Oh dang thats right the Republicans actually want to cut Veterans benefits. I wonder if more politicians sons and daughters were serving if this would be happeneing.

Mystery weapon found in weapons cache Iraq

This looks like a modified 203 grenade launcher.

From what I recall it was similar to a Mark 14, (a short M-16 with a 203 mounted below it)

This is turning into a very bad situation, however it goes we must support the troops. We have a new generation scarred by war.
