Jack, don't blame the soldiers. Blame the government. That said. I submitted a picture of my husband. He has been in Afghanistan since August 2010. He will be coming home soon!! My kids and I can't wait. Until you have walked in the footsteps of a military family, please keep your comments to yourself. We don't want our husbands over there for false purposes, either. My kids have been without a father for a year. I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and have had to be both a mother and a father while at the same time worrying that every time I see a headline "soldiers killed in Afghanistan" that my husband was among those. Yes, he signed up to defend our country and it is part of the job hazard... but that doesn't mean it doesn't make it any easier nor does it mean we want them over there fighting a rich man's war. Oh and for what it's worth, my husband's unit has never had to engage an attack. They have only had to defend their FOB. My husband's job is computers and satellites.

I agree, how can you pick just one of the pictures? I think everyone should win. I love that Spring Break picture from a previous contest.

Jack, you're pathetically propogating an lie. If you hate US personnel for the accidental deaths that occur as part of war, do you detest the Taliban and militia's for intentionally murdering tens of thousands of innocent civilians? I'm guessing not, because you're irrational and probably incapable of analytic thought.
Harvey, thank you for devoting your site's resources to focusing on the troops in a positive fashion.

Jack has it right. These men are disgusting for fighting illegal resource wars of aggression at the behest of elite banking interests. You can say that it's not the soldiers fault, but in fact they are more at fault than those that give the orders. If the soldiers would wake up and refuse to kill innocent people that have never harmed them the wars end tomorrow. Are they going to throw them all in the brig??? Killing brown people on the orders of a racist eugenics based social elite is never the right thing to do, and shame on TMZ for spewing this propaganda. Has an Afghan ever harmed you? Has an Iraqi? The hijackers were Saudis, and that's if you believe the official story. Wake up Amerika! These guys are coming home with PTSD and will become cops!!!

Hero's my ass. Go check out youtube and see your heroes killing and torturing dogs for fun. Go ahead! Check it out. If they do this to poor animals, you just know what they're doing to the innocent Afghans. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld should be charged with crimes against humanity for this illegal war.

While you are shooting off at the mouth, remember a soldier is the reason you have that freedom. How about while you are on your way to work(that is if you work since tree hugging liberals usual don't,thanks to the gov allowing them to be lazy) how about you worry about an IED being on the side of road waiting to end your life as well as those around you. How about you get off the computer showing off your stupidity and doing something for your country instead of bashing it. I hear the weather is beautiful in Afghanistan, why not move yourself and your family there for 18 months and let me know how that works out for you. GOD BLESS AMERICA and OUR TROOPS!!!!!!

Interesting fact:
The US military budget for the past 8 years accounts for over 1/2 of the total US debt.

wow as a military wife I had no idea people would really say this about soldiers makes me sick. WHy dont all you *******s move to the middle east if you hate what your country stands for so much and see how much you like it there. NO one knows what really goes on in the sand only the soldiers do. All those men care about is providing for their families and getting home to them. And yea i submitted a baby photo of my lil girl 7 days old in her daddys arms smiling because thats what life is all about in the military BEING HOME
Kayla
Wendy your awesome and you got it exactly right!
