    Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

      Cool article.

      (Other than the bad math or poor editing. LOL)

      ...more than 4,000 died in the first hours of the invasion on the beaches of Normandy.

      Even more sobering is the fact that nearly four times as many allied soldiers (an estimated 173,000) were severely wounded or missing that day.

      I am guess that a Army medic in combat gets about the equivalent of 1 year of experience for every week or month they are there.

        The first chapter (2nd?) of Atul Gawande's book "Better" deals with battlefield medical triage and how things have changed since WWII. It's fascinating how things have changed.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.
