NEWS 1

The news article that I read from the Denver Post was about a solider that was killed over in Afghanistan on Sept 25. Luke Milam was awarded the bronze star for saving his platoon and rescuing some of his men that were trapped inside burning trucks. Also in 2006 he was honored with being the best marine, receiving the "operator of the year" award. This article makes me think about how wrong it was of President Bush to send troops over to Iraq for this long of time. It really saddens me to keep hearing about all the people that have been very decorated soldiers, and very honored soldiers that have been killed over there, when they should be back home being honored. I think that it was good to be over there at first but now I think that our men should be back where they belong, in the loving arms of friends, family, and husbands and wives. For the most part this article made me think that the soldiers really don't need to be over in Iraq and Afghanistan.
