Jed’s article was great. I really enjoyed it and found it to be exactly in tune with what I’ve learned of Iraq. I am in a brigade combat team preparing to go to Iraq. I’ve been to Iraq on a leader’s recon. We did MOUT Training (Military Operations in Urban Terrain) at Camp Shelby, MS. We had native Mississippians, and native Iraqis, playing civilians on the battlefield (COBs). They were all great and provided realistic training. The Iraqis were great, and they contributed greatly to our training and greatly to our morale. They told us how much they owed us and how much they appreciated our mission and our goals, which are in line with theirs, a free and democratic Iraq.

I know it will be hard, but at least I know there are a few in America who know what we are trying to do. br> — Jeremy L. Griffith br> CPT, TC, MN ARNG /p> p> Once again, one of
