Hello, For some, it feels like the Iraq War has been going on forever, and for some, it feels like it just began. For me, it began the day my brother, Jason, left for Iraq. I had never been personally affected by the war yet. It was thousands of miles away and was something that was all over the news, but no one paid much attention to. Jason deployed to Kuwait in early December and flew into Baghdad on Christmas Day. Our correspondence with him has been limited, but it is always amazing to hear his voice.
