Clicking on the new “Home and Away” section on the CNN Site helps put the reason for this time in perspective
emotionally. Numbers are appalling, but seeing the individual faces of the men and women who died in Iraq and
Afghanistan is really moving. Along with photos are anecdotes about the individuals and maps showing
hometowns.
At The Flag Factory, we continuously meet people who have lost family or friends in Iraq and Afghanistan. Meeting
these people has left us with a sense of the enormity of each loss. Looking at the CNN site helps you understand
how many people are grieving all over the United States and allied countries.
