If you don't know, considering the media isn't covering it now that it's Obama's Good (and Forgotten) War, we're still fighting over there in Afghanistan, as are our allies the Brits.
A British medic was recently awarded the Military Cross for working to save lives under fire on two separate occasions in Afghanistan, and saving an Afghan soldier.
Even better in that Islam-dominated conflict, the medic is female:
The Telegraph: Female medic awarded Military Cross for bravery
Both stories are worth reading and both give slightly different coverage of the events that led to L.Cpl. Kylie Watson being awarded the Military Cross for both saving lives and engaging the enemy while doing so.
Both stories clearly show that she deserves the award.
Nicely done indeed.

Isn't it interesting how the wars that used to be headline news 24/7 suddenly disappeared from the news on the day that Obama took office? You'd never know that more US troops have served in Afghanistan--and been killed there--under Obama than during the entire Bush Presidency because his pet media is keeping those facts from the people.
