2. It loaded in seconds for me
You may have a technical problem on your end.

What it is, is a representation of monthly KIA's in Iraq that uses one folded flag for each fallen soldier. You may have seen a post on this at DU in the last week...looks like it has been given a dedicated website.

It is quite moving and sad.

3. Why don't you step-up into the 21st century?
I loved the site and had no problems downloading using my cable modem.

If people can't afford the high rates still charged for broadband (DSL and Cable), there's Internet Cafes and Libraries that can be enjoyed in almost every city.

Dial up is painfully slow for most web pages that contain a significant amount of graphics.

Thank you for this website, I will pass it on to my husband who's a USMC Retired. :-)

6. Thanks guy,
I posted this site the other day, I just moved it to it's own URL. I have Downloaded from home work and so on and it loads very fast. I has had over 20,000 hits in 4 days....

4k yesterdat alone...

The HTML has a larger overhead because of the alt tags. but I agree, you should clean your chach and that should help...

There are only 5 images on the whole site, so....
