Baghdad? Shouldn’t this be the other title? And a woman? Is there any list or count of how many women have died in both Iraq and Afghanistan? Just wondering.
Oh dear, you’re right. I spaced. Changing now. Sorry to all.
It’s okay. I was reading it and was struck by this part:
She was assigned to the 504th Military Police Battalion, 42nd Military Police Brigade, Joint Base Lewis-McChord, Wash.
So it made me reread it all. Or else I wouldn’t have caught it myself.
