Source: CNN International

(CNN) -- Six U.S. soldiers died this week after attacks in northeastern Afghanistan, officials said.

The soldiers were all from the same Army unit and died Tuesday after fighting in Afghanistan's Kunar province, the Defense Department said in a statement.


The soldiers were from the 101st Airborne Division's 1st Brigade Combat Team from Fort Campbell in Kentucky.

The soldiers were identified as Ofren Arrechaga, 28, of Florida; Frank Adamski III, 26, of Connecticut; Jameson Lindskog, 23, of California; Jeremy Faulkner, 23, of Georgia; Bryan Burgess, 29, of Texas and Dustin Feldhaus, 20, of Arizona.

2. Six more young men killed... For what?
Oh, I keep forgetting we're "fighting them over there so we don't have to fight them over here". What a steaming heap of unadulterated bullshit.:mad:
