There was a story not long ago about a soldier contesting his FIFTH assignment, but I don't think they did anything about it - he'd been in Iraq and Afghanistan.<BR/><BR/>I saw a headline yesterday about desertions being at an all-time high.

He showed a touching clip of a soldier returning home after his third (I think) rotation in Iraq to tearful hugs from his family. It was a beautiful, very emotional scene.

CNN is going to do a special report on this sometime soon, called At War With the VA. I hope it will finally get something done about this national disgrace.
