Thank you to all who have served and continue to serve, including the often overlooked civilian contractors who provide their valuable knowledge and service as well. God Bless and Keep you.
HOORAH!!

We won. The Iraq War is over.
I declare November 22, 2008 to be "Victory in Iraq Day." (Hereafter known as "VI Day.")
By every measure, The United States and coalition forces have
conclusively defeated all enemies in Iraq, pacified the country,
deposed the previous regime, successfully helped to establish a new
functioning democratic government, and suppressed any lingering
insurgencies. The war has come to an end. And we won.
And since there will never be a ticker-tape parade down Fifth Avenue in New York for our troops, it's up to us, the people, to arrange a virtual ticker-tape parade. An online victory celebration.
Saturday, November 22, 2008 is the day of that celebration: Victory in Iraq Day.
