Editor's note: Twenty percent of the U.S. troops fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan come from the Army National Guard. Many are from small towns, and go to war alongside family and friends.

I agree. But "supporting the troops" means learning about and understanding what they and their families are going through on our behalf.
