Go for it? Educate me. I’m sure you’re up to cutting and pasting a bunch of stuff from your word file.

Explain how it is the same when in WWll, our military landed on the beaches of Normandy and while so many lost their lives, they lost their lives while shelling the hell out of the enemy to how our guys day after day in Iraq and Afghanistan are for the most part dying by planted roadside bombs and mortar attacks while not engaging in combat. It’s not that no bad guys are being killed doing it this way, it’s that the way our military is having to go about it is insane. It’s the way a country fights that doesn’t care more about their own troops than they do people of other countries.

Nope, no Word file cut and paste. Where you got that idea from I'll never know. Soldiers are soldiers. When in a combat zone (which is what the entirety of Iraq is by the way) combat is always possible. Just because you aren't firing offensive volleys doesn't mean it's not combat.
