Body Count

Here is an interesting point. This is the tally from one month at Normandy while in Iraq, we have lost about 900 in the year+ we have been there. Somewhere else, Ive read that we lost over 1000 men in the PRACTICE EXERSIZE for the Normandy Invasion. Given this, Ike was expecting 70% losses, but due to weather conditions, the Germans re-deployed troops elsewhere and our losses ended up at about 20%. He EXPECTED to loose 70% and went through with it anyways! We may need to get some DNA from Ike and clone him, too bad it's illegal.
