I saw no reference to when I got sent to Iraq in the middle of the night like I was sneaking in. When you are a microcosmic participant you do not have a luxury of a full view like this. I give it thumbs up

I am a bit disappointed that the time line is so narrowly focused. It would be like saying that WWII start in 1941. One could easily argue that the current Iraq war was a cause of all the events through the 90s. At a minimum, the vote of 2002 [en.wikipedia.org]) should be included.
