Military Blog? Photo's from Iraq? Afghan? Etc.

[Kevin Spidel]

I am compiling a list of online blogs/photo journal essasy from journalists, troops, etc from the front lines. For the holidays I want to send current stories, pictures, etc from the front lines to family members, etc.

I don't want the right to spin this dialogue like they did during veterans day. I want the reaily of war, and the faces, the stories, etc to be shown. I am then going to encourage my family/friends to do something for the troops.

I want them all to get the real stories.

See the real faces.

Maybe then they will get a clue, and stand in line in protest to demand bush bring them home!

Anyway.. if you have blogs, sites with current pictures, etc. Please reply with links.

Thank you all!

If you don't cry when you see this you are not human.
