Still lots of stuff going on in Afganistan. It was a realative success, so the press isn't interested. I have friends that I served with in both locations right now.
We don't see the good things our troops are doing like taking 150 pairs of shoes to a school and giving them to children who don't have any. Building schools and other public buildings.
War brings out the worst and the best in people, unfortunately we only get to see one side in the news. Regardless of why we are there, we are, so we need to make the best of it. Look at the disaster in Hati, we helped them out in the 90's, they are small enough to ignore, but the PEOPLE are still hurting.
Big changes in the weapons compared to WWII, couple that with the same typoe of tactics employed during the American Revolution and you have a deadly mix. Ever clear a building? Perhaps THE most dangerous type of warfare possible.
