I remember getting briefed on that stuff prior to Iraq in '05. There was a price for soldiers, and the payment varied for HMMWVs/Brads/Tanks etc. Nothing new.

B/1/118 Inf, 218th BCT Afghan 07

I'm not stupid, I'm crazy...there is a difference.

It's a fluid environment. Things change. This is really old news.

Very true. Reagan did his best to incite an open war back in '87-'88. Wish we'd gotten it over with back then.
