#1 Thank you, United States military, certain brave Iraqis, a certain unpopular US president, and a small number of stalwart regular Americans. You all will or shall have honor in your times. It isn't churlish or small to wish that those who helped make this so difficult, and who even know blacken your names without cause, get the dishonor in their times that they deserve. Not churlish or small, but presently looking unrealistic, as the latter group is being rewarded with power, perks, and (nominal) respectability.
