What this leaves out is the amount of personnel in the areas that they are talking about. Ramadi has one bn but is suffering 6 percent of the casulites. Do the math.
Of course it galls me to hear how few casulites we are taking compared to WWII. What a crappy comparison. Kind of like comparing this to Vietnam.
When you get the privledge of speaking with the families you tell them how great it is going because after all there are so many less KIA.
