              I must say, Iraq is a great way to save money as far as the commute and such goes. It's also a great way to lose weight if that's your perogative. However, the reason for me is loyalty to those I serve with. Being in the Infantry we're a pretty close group and despite how I feel about the war I couldn't leave them hanging. Especially after some of the things I've seen. After learning what I have about the war, I must say that is the only reason I am there at all. The thing is, I have no idea why the m
