The Deeds of the Dead

[syzygy]

a list of names is just a list. the link below will provide a context for the mourning
to help understand the services and deeds performed by our people when they met
their untimely ends. the list should include civilian as well as military personnel but it
does not. the list of deeds below includes the accomplishment of both.

this is the pdf of the recent fox news show highlighting the deeds of those who
sacrificed their lives. the one other thread on this subject did not contain a link
to the actual document and no talk of substance on the work done by these
people.

Sorry, I misunderstood. I thought you had a link to bios of those who died in the war, telling us something about their lives. My error.

That's actually what I went to your link hoping gratefully to find.

if anyone ever decides to write a bio about you, please remind them to
leave the parts about your professional accomplishments out.

tell them to spend their chapters writing about your pearly whites instead.

syzygy: Here is a CNN transcript that supports some of the assertions found in the Fox News transcript. Just scroll down to "JIM CLANCY".

thanks. there is much more than could ever possibly be linked to - but its noble to try.

for example, the pdf above, under quality of life improvements (pg. 4), says '20,000
reconstruction projects have been completed by the coalition'.

I have alway cared about the names of men that go into battle and die ever since a old guy once told me, Son you know what is wrong with this country, For over 80 years we have sent our best to die for this country in wars and left the worst here to breed, I think he had a point

The cnn link seems to be more down-to-earth versus the PDF is something outta of a corporate PR department. I had no no idea they've got media and internet going. good for them!

I do not know anyone who doesn't appreciate the efforts of our soldiers..

BUT I do know that our country is falling apart and that many areas in America could use the 300billion dollars Bush wants to spend on Iraq.
