These soldiers won't get their names on the US's first and only memorial to ongoing wars --the Irvine, CA Long War memorial, to be dedicated 14 Nov 2010. It will have space for 8000 names of the dead (from in-theatre, not Ft Hood or suicides or CIA). It will be more than half filled at dedication but will be updated yearly with new names of dead US soldiers from Iraq and Afghanistan. No need to wait for wars to be lost before commemorating the dead in the new world order!
