A soldier rests on the streets of Sadr City, Iraq during a dismounted security patrol June, 2008. Most soldiers and Marines work over ten (and up to 20 or more) hours a day, seven days a week in temperatures reaching 60c/140f. To add to the physical stress, body armor weighs around 18kg/40lbs and combined with other equipment they often carry a total of 31kg/70lbs. The mental stress also weighs on soldiers and Marines, as most of their time outside of bases is spent trying to guess who may be friendly and who may be their enemy.
Thanks for pointing this out. Additionally, many of those on the front line get few, if any days off. My son has been in Sadr City since April and has worked every day since his arrival.

The enemy is the U.S army invading and killing civilians. Iraqi people live there, is not their job to die under U.S. fire and "workers"(soldiers). Sory if they´re tired of killing. Maybe that should send them home, away from iraqi children.

If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view.
