Its the number of wounded that is really frightening.

At least death is final. Many of those soldiers and their families have to deal with those injuries for the rest of their lives. How much does a wounded soldier get to live on when he returns to the U.S.?

I wonder how many think it was worth the loss of a limb?

...and how many return with injuries that you cannot see?
