Background
The continuing pattern of extending troops in Iraq; re-deploying troops for second, third, fourth and fifth deployments; stop-lossing servicemen and women who have served their time; and recalling the IRR -- a force that is supposed to be used in times of national emergency, not wars of choice based on lies -- is taking a huge toll on our troops and their families. As the violence continues to escalate, fueled by the on-going U.S. military occupation, the burden of the failures of this Administration is again falling on the troops who have given so much and the families back home who love them.
