I'm worried,my brother just got stationed at that base a week ago.


"A suicide bomber attacked the entrance to the main U.S. military base in Afghanistan on Tuesday during a visit by Vice President Dick Cheney, killing up to 23 people and wounding 20. The Taliban claimed responsibility and said Cheney, who was unharmed, was the target."

My cousin's husband was in Afghanistan for a year, working for Halliburton.
