A little over two months ago Fort Lewis in Washington state, home to 10,000 or 11,000 soldiers deployed in war zones, decided that too many of its soldiers were getting killed in Iraq and Afghanistan and moved to having only group memorial services once a month to honour the dead. Today officials at the Army base are to reconsider their decision after numerous complaints from families and soldiers. They are expected to announce their decision around 11:00 PDT (19:00 BST).
I hope they change their minds. Perhaps the Decider(TM) might finally want to attend one.
