This sobering report comes from the Washington Post: More than 1,000 American troops have been wounded in battle over the past three months in Afghanistan, accounting for one-fourth of all those injured in combat since the U.S.-led invasion in 2001. The dramatic increase has filled military hospitals with more amputees and other seriously injured service members and comes as October marks the deadliest month for American troops in Afghanistan. How many were killed or lost a limb, I wonder, while the president dithered and delayed implementing the recommendations of his hand-picked general?
