Short Answer

1. Birdy is in the US Army headed to Iraq. He writes to his uncle, a Vietnam War veteran, that he wanted to join the army because of 9/11. He also notes that this is the first time he has defied his father’s wishes, and that he already has some doubts. (Chapter 1)

2. Operation Iraqi Freedom is the military plan that the USUS Army is involved in. Phase 1 is an assessment of the area, which was started after the Gulf War in 1991 and is now complete. Phase 2 is warfare, which has not started yet. Phase 3 will involve the forceful removal of the Saddam Hussein regime and weapons of mass destruction. Phase 4, which is Birdy’s unit, is democratization. (blurred text
