4000 is too many- bring them home!

I attended a vigil acknowledging the 5th anniversary of the war last Wednesday.
Yesterday, I was devasted to hear that a new mark had been reached. 4000 young americans have lost their lives in the Iraq war.
The program that where I heard this figure stated that MOST AMERICANS DID NOT KNOW HOW MANY AMERICAN SON AND/OR DAUGHTERS HAD LOST THEIR LIVES! That fact blew me away also.
