Thanks, BB.
We, Americans, are tooting our own horn a little on the airways, but I have seen quite a bit of favorable press on your boys and the Aussies. You have to remember that we have several news sources. I don't know if CNN is the only one you get, but they usually are up there with the best, IMO. I am not sure how this war will be spun afterwards, but I am sure that other countrymen will not get the full accolades that they deserve here in the States. I have seen the Brits and Aussies being shown more as helpers rather than equal counter-parts, and that is unfortunate. We may have more people over there, but the the international support (including the US) is what will win this war, not one particular country.
