59. Yesterday there was a thread about 56 yr. old woman/National Guard/ driving trucks
in Iraq. Her training and experience was to be assigned as an assistant to a military chaplain. And the thing is all of these so-called "support" troops will be in the middle of the war and as likely as any combat troops to be blown up, blown away, or otherwise slaughtered.
