My father helped take Okinawa. Anyone know how many we lost on that island?

12,513 dead or missing in 11 weeks of combat.

And idiots like Mike Barnicle has the gall to call the Iraq War the "worst military disaster in American history". Despicable.

If your Dad is still around, please thank him for me.

I wish he were. He passed away in 2002.

There were single days in the Civil War when more men were killed than the Americans who have died in Afghanistan and Iraq combined.
