    Thx again for posting, though for a different reason this week.

    I had missed that there were three Iraq fatalities this week and it surprised me quite a bit…getting less and less conditioned to seeing casualty reports from that theater.

    If anyone is curious, a quick Google search revealed that Spc. Whisenant died in a vehicle rollover in Kuwait, and that Carillo and Noonan died in some sort of “non-combat incident” near Fallujah.

    On the bright side, the Iraqis have made some strides naming their government this week, but we are far from “out of the woods” on that one.
