30 soldiers AWOL from home leave
In other news, meet 30 soldiers who DIDNT die in Iraq today
More than 30 soldiers who came home from Iraq for two weeks of leave have failed to show up for their flights back to the combat zone, military officials said yesterday. The soldiers, among more than 1,300 troops so far in the first large-scale home leave program since Vietnam, have yet to be declared absent without leave -- a violation of military law.
"We had the same problem in Vietnam," said retired Marine officer Gary Solis.
"Just ask George W Bush."
