On the weekend of SHOCK & AWE - a translation from the Prussian ? -
I learned that my nephew, Christopher Covill of Coventry, Rhode Island,
was seriously injured in a combat incident in Kuwait or Iraq. Chris
is presently in a military hospital in Germany. A Providence Journal
reporter ( ccrowley@projo.com ) has some family provided background
information on Chris. The Marines have nothing to say about the matter.
I am getting the impression that our Ministry of Truth now
defines " casualties of war " as soldiers killed or missing in action or
taken prisoner. In any war, of course, there are far more wounded !
Could Chris possibly be the FIRST local boy wounded over there ?
Or as we expected the first casualty of war is the truth ?
I'll bet my nephew has already had enough SHOCK & AWE for a
lifetime !
TELL THE TRUTH ABOUT THE WAR !
