It would have been nice if the story had mentioned that were not or were some deaths or injuries during the deployment.

There were no casualties in this unit.

Job well done

As the son of Dutch immigrants that were liberated from German occupation during WW II by US troops, I have a little different perspective on the war in Iraq. The people you freed from Hussien control will never forget you. I know it's been hard to be away from your families, but what you've done is a good thing. Thanks.

I was driving the backroads past Manti Tuesday, returning home to Colorado, and saw in so many towns and bergs large banners, very prominently displayed, welcoming home the 145th Battalion. I think seldom outside of Utah are individuals and whole communities so willing to proudly support and appreciate the efforts of our American troops. I'm grateful for you all.
