Small US Towns Bear Scars From Iraq
Across the nation, small towns are quietly bearing a disproportionate burden of war. Nearly half of the more than 3,100 US military casualties in Iraq have come from towns like McKeesport, Pennsylvania, where fewer than 25,000 people live. One in five hailed from hometowns of fewer than 5,000. Many of the hometowns of the war dead aren't just small, they're poor.
