Thirty-Eight-Year Military Campaign Finally Ends

Operation Banner in Northern Ireland, the British army’s longest continuous military campaign in its history, has finally ended after thirty-eight years. 

Lieutenant-General Nicholas Parker, the General Officer Commanding, “makes it clear that he will not offer an opinion on ‘who won’ – no matter how many times the question is rephrased.”

Will the United States be in Iraq for thirty-eight years? Since we have had troops in Japan, Italy, Germany, and South Korea for over fifty years, I say yes.
