A distant war comes home to America
By David Goldstein | McClatchy Newspapers
Posted on Sunday, December 16, 2007

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. This is Part One of a four-part story about one of those units, Bravo Battery of the Kansas National Guard's 161st Field Artillery, and one night in Iraq that changed many lives.

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