Welcome from a veteran from Wars and CI.

Keep the good work going.

Military men are just there to get the nation's policies impacting. It is above petty politics.

The Creator Bless You!

The area was pretty well cleaned up the next morning after the bombing at the courthouse. I think the locals decided that they wanted to clean up the mess and move on. We (the US) assisted with casualities and none were lost that arrived for treattment. Some went to the civilian hospital in Baqubah.
