Picture of the Day - 2




U.S. troops killed during the war in Iraq are seen in this photo combo. Top row from left: Cpl. Michael D. Anderson, Lance Cpl. Jeffery S. Blanton, Sgt. Thomas J. Dostie, Sgt. Cari A. Gasiewicz, Pfc. George D. Harrison, Pfc. Joshua A. Ramsey, Cpl. Ian W. Stewart, Capt. Mark N. Stubenhofer, Lance Cpl. Franklin A. Sweger, Staff Sgt. Darren D. VanKomen, Pfc. Brent T. Vroman, and Pfc. Andrew M. Ward.

On my computer screen, this image takes up about 3 inches vertically. If I were to display all the pictures of those that have died in US service in Iraq in a similar fashion, the pictures would extend downward for over 50 feet.

  • The images of the wounded would be something like 375 feet.
