American soldiers sound off about the occupation of Iraq.

"Man, they can’t pay me enough to stay here. There’s not enough money in the world to make me stay a month longer." - Anonymous Specialist, 4th Infantry Division commenting on the $10,000 three year re-up bonus announced by the Pentagon.

"Wow, 130,000 troops on the ground, nearly 500 deaths and over a billion dollars a day, but they caught a guy living in a hole. Am I supposed to be dazzled?" - Anonymous Army Specialist

"If someone invaded Texas, we'd do the same thing." - Lieutenant Colonel Kim Keslung, 21st Combat Support hospital, Balad, Iraq.
