US Is Extending Tours of Army in Battle Zones
The military announced Wednesday that most active duty Army units now in Iraq and Afghanistan, as well as those sent in the future, would serve 15-month tours, three months longer than the standard one-year tour. Speaker Nancy Pelosi said in a statement, "Extending the tours of all active duty Army personnel is an unacceptable price for our troops and their families to pay."
