3 Emotional photos..what do you think?

Yes..I know..before someone spouts of about the sticky up top. Well one of the pictures im posting can be discussed and I dont want to clutter that thread up with that.



Nancy Chamberlain of Winslow, Maine, reacts to seeing the photo of her son, U.S. Marine Maj. Jay Thomas Aubin, on a local news program Friday, March 21. Aubin was one of four U.S. and eight British soldiers who died in a helicopter crash in Kuwait, Friday.



A wounded Iraqi prisoner holds the hand of a U.S. Marine medic during his evacuation by helicopter from the field hospital of the 3rd Marine Battalion near Basra, southern Iraq, on March 22.



Finally the one I wanted to discuss.

British soldiers survey damage at an Iraqi position March 22 as the bodies of two Iraqi soldiers lay in a trench next to a white flag after the British assault on the Al-Faw peninsula in southern Iraq.



Now I dont want to hear any bitching about the iraqis possibly killing POWs.

Remember this is war as so many of you have said.

The marines might not have seen the white flag during the fighting. That happens in fighting. The soldiers get too caught up in the fighting.

There has been reports that those iraqi soldiers have use some tricks including pretending to surrender and welcoming the Allied troops and then suddenly attack them.

The allied troops have sufferred a lot in those encounters.
