Forgetting Afghan war, until death brings it home

http://www.wect.com/story/19537695/forgetting-afghan-war-until-death-brings-it-home

That is, until a community must welcome a dead soldier home.

So far, 1,980 American fighters have been killed in Afghanistan.
A recent surge of insider attacks by Afghan security forces has
claimed the lives of 40 allied combatants, according to a report
by the Brookings Institution.
Americans may have pushed the war from their everyday
consciousness. But losing neighbors and classmates, losing a
Greg Copes or a Kyle McClain, keeps turning a distant war into
an anguished and very personal reality.
