Yeah this war is real, and now they are asking for more kids and a time frame of a dozen years has been referenced.
It's time to get real about the cost of all of this and if they really can be afforded.
They've been identified as 21-year-old Lance Cpl. Patrick Schimmel, 20-year-old Lance Cpl. Javier Olvera and 23-year-old Lance Cpl. Dennis Burrow. Schimmel was from Winfield, Mo., Olvera was from Palmdale, Calif., and Burrow was from Naples, Fla.
All were killed in separate incidents in combat in Afghanistan over the weekend. They were all assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2nd Marine Division.
The number of U.S. and international troops killed in Afghanistan has soared this year. July was the deadliest month for U.S. and foreign troops since the start of the war in 2001.
At least 16 deaths
