So just how are the pics of American POW’s affecting our troops?

The Washington Post has a great article on our advance, and towards the bottom was the ringer:

Troops advancing toward Baghdad said they were prepared for the fight ahead, despite news of fallen comrades. At least 20 U.S. troops have been killed and 14 captured or missing since the operation began.

“I think the deaths of Americans gives us more incentive to fight,” said Lance Cpl. Chad Borgmann, 23, of Sidney, Neb., with the 15th Marine Expeditionary Force. “Freeing Iraq is all fine and dandy … but this gives us a personal motivation to fight.”

HUAH!
