Mission Accomplished - Today U.S. Marines End Role in Iraq

A job well done by our fine Marines who wrapped up operations in Iraq today finally after 7 years, all come home hero's, and hopefully won't be the recipients of any abuse from liberals upon their return, as has been the case in other wars in modern times.
