Good Morning. It is Christmas Day.
It is also our 4,097th day in Afghanistan.
We'll start this morning as we always do; with the latest casualty figures from our ongoing war, courtesy of Antiwar.com:
US Military Deaths - Afghanistan: 2,171
Other Military Deaths - Afghanistan: 1,072
We find this morning's
cost of war passing through:
$ 1, 406, 484, 400,000 .00 And so being Christmas, we'll just leave it with the stats today. From all of us at "Ask a Vet" to all of you....a very merry Christmas. Do take a moment to pause and remember our soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines that can't be with their families today.
