reality of war

 

[P.O.W.]

Yet the American soldiers in the current Iraq war have a better chance of surviving those wounds and getting back home than any other soldiers in history. Better protection, faster evacuation and improved medical techniques at the edge of combat have dramatically reduced battlefield mortality..

Lets just hope the powers at be decide not to cut any costs in this area.

Articles like this make me a little tired. Our wounded come back to the best medical care on the planet. The Iraqi wounded get a $4 cane instead of a $30,000 prosthetic.
