Stars and Stripes.

A good article from Stars and Stripes showing both sides of the picture from the point of view of the troops.

While some think we should go and some thing we should stay, I don't see ANY buying the Republican balderdash that dissent hurts the troops.

“Don’t say that political speeches hurt morale. That’s an insult to me and my soldiers,” said one senior officer in Baghdad who asked that his name not be used. “What hurts morale is lack of equipment. What hurts morale is watching a soldier die. What hurts morale is not having enough boots on the ground to get the job done and keep it that way.”


Notice that when they utter sentiments like that, they feel the need to remain anonymous.
