I've been dreading this moment ever since you've been posting the death notices from DoD.

We know the war is lost; yet how many more must be sacrificed on the altar of our national pride; how many more must die to assuage our national vanity, which holds that accepting error is worse than death?

It's because of this that I don't believe the Appeal for Redress will go anywhere.
