		<description><![CDATA[To his enemies, he was the “Devil of Ramadi,” an unseen terror who harried insurgents with his rifle during Operation Iraqi Freedom, often from an impossible remove. He served four tours of duty. He was credited with some 160 confirmed kills. He was awarded two Purple Hearts. He played a role in every major engagement in the Iraq war. To the 18,000 folks of Midlothian, Texas, a blue collar town just south of Dallas, Navy SEAL sniper Chris Kyle, 38, was invincible, revered, a local boy, a hero who’d seen and done things they couldn’t imagine, and who then came back home to live among them again and to watch his children grow. Kyle was a presence in Midlothian. And so was his truck, a souped-up honey that was unmistakable on the streets of the town — a black Ford F-350 with black rims, black window tint, huge knobby mud tires and an aftermarket grill guard befitting an armored riot vehicle. On Saturday, he rode it one last time. A teacher’s aide at an elementary school just a mile from Kyle’s home had asked him to reach out to her son. Jodi Routh saw her son, an ex-marine, struggling with posttraumatic stress disorder and believed the war hero could help. And so some time on Saturday afternoon, Kyle and his buddy Chad Littlefield picked up Eddie Ray Routh, a tall and wiry 25-year-old, at his home in the Dallas suburb of Lancaster. (MORE: Chris Kyle’s Alleged Killer) They would have driven down Highway 67 through Midlothian, past the Holcim cement kiln, with its smokestacks reaching hundreds of feet into the air like spires, and past the Gerdau steel mill, where rust-colored smoke dissipates into a pall over laboring excavators and mounds of scrap metal. They left behind the flatlands and crossed west over the Brazos River, into that dry, rocky country, all low, cedar-scrub hills, post oak and cactus. A little after 3 p.m., according to court papers, they would have pulled through the sandstone-and-iron gate of Rough Creek Lodge and Resort,<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nation.time.com&#038;blog=20157722&#038;post=105228&#038;subd=timemilitary&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A blue-eyed first grader at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut, Dylan Christopher Jack Hockley loved trampolines, plain spaghetti with garlic bread and the color purple. On Friday, purple was everywhere at the Walnut Hill Community Church in nearby Bethel—his mother’s blouse, his father’s shirt, his brother’s tie—as hundreds of people packed in for his funeral. On Dec. 14, Dylan, who was six-and-three-quarters and autistic, was killed in the arms of his special education teacher, Anne Marie Murphy, when a lone gunman entered his classroom and opened fire with a semiautomatic rifle. Twenty students, five teachers and the principal were killed at Sandy Hook in what became one of the worst mass shootings in American history. (MORE: The Re-Making of Newtown: Will Tragedy Make It Stronger?) Now, as the final funeral processions weave through the streets of Newtown, Conn. and surrounding communities, residents oscillate between past and present tense while referring to the victims as they search for ways to move beyond the tragedy. The media hordes have grown smaller but traffic on the main road through town is still congested, and while people here were initially comforted by the roadside memorials that have sprung up on every other corner, some say they’re just distractions that will eventually be torn down. At one, near the school, a stuffed bear is gripped protectively by a larger one, just as Dylan was last Friday morning. John Dischinger, one of the pastors at Walnut Hill, opened the ceremony by urging the congregation to replace hatred with love, and darkness with light, in order to properly celebrate Dylan’s life. “I don’t know about you, but I think we’ve had enough darkness,” he said. A woman on the stage then began singing “Hallelujah”—Dylan’s favorite song from Shrek—rewritten with happier lyrics for the service. His mother, Nicole, spoke of the “special” bonds that Dylan shared with his teachers, Victoria Soto and Murphy. “At the firehouse, I was looking for Mrs. Murphy because I knew no matter what, she would be with Dylan,” she said. First-responders found Murphy<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nation.time.com&#038;blog=20157722&#038;post=99723&#038;subd=timemilitary&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hours before the official list of victims’ names had been released, Thomas Leuci, 13, had already learned that at least one person he knew did not make it out of Sandy Hook Elementary on Friday. “One of our wrestlers for elementary school… he was killed,” said Thomas, who participates in the Newtown Youth Wrestling Association. “It’s sad. It was his first year actually.” Thomas’ younger brother Steven, 9, had not yet heard the news. He looked up at his older brother and asked, “Wait, which one?” “Pinto,” Thomas said. “Oh … him,” Steven said softly. Though he attended a different school, Steven knew of Jack Pinto, who was six-years old and had taken part in a wrestling meet on Thursday, the day before Adam Lanza invaded Sandy Hook Elementary. Jack’s funeral, one of the first after the slaughter, was scheduled for Monday afternoon. On Sunday, Victor Cruz, the New York Giants receiver, wore Jack’s name on his cleats and gloves to honor the child, who idolized him. (MORE: Remembering the Victims of the Sandy Hook Elementary School Shooting) The Leuci brothers began mourning earlier. On Saturday afternoon, Steven and Thomas stood at the intersection of Dickinson Drive and Riverside Road near the entrance to Jack Pinto’s school to pay their respects. They watched mourners leave flowers and balloons at the site. Thomas said simply, “It’s sad.” Volunteer firemen positioned 26 Christmas trees along the edge of Dickinson Drive, the road that leads to Sandy Hook Elementary School. The trees – originally part of the fire department&#8217;s annual sale – were donated by an anonymous North Carolina resident. Twenty-six trees with toys and beads between their branches for the 26 victims who will not unwrap gifts this Christmas. Educational Assistant Shari Burton – who was inside Sandy Hook Elementary School Friday during the shooting – placed angels atop three Christmas trees at the base of Church Hill Road Saturday night. &#8220;Those angels represent the children that I&#8217;ve lost and the staff that I&#8217;ve lost,&#8221; said Burton, who has worked at Sandy Hook<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nation.time.com&#038;blog=20157722&#038;post=98911&#038;subd=timemilitary&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[UPDATED: Dec. 16, 2012 The village of Sandy Hook is what most would expect of a small town: neighbors leave their doors unlocked at night and residents not only know your name, they also know what kind of car you drive. Generations of families in Newtown, Conn. — of which Sandy Hook is a part — learned to read, write, add and subtract at Sandy Hook Elementary. &#8220;It&#8217;s one of those schools where you would see it in a movie,&#8221; says Shaun Piccirillo, 26, who attended the school — as did nine other members of his family. &#8220;It&#8217;s tiny, it&#8217;s very homey. It&#8217;s not like your overgrown school that you see nowadays everywhere.&#8221; But on Friday, the fabric of the town began to unravel at that very school as residents got word of the massacre that took the lives of 12 girls, eight boys and six adult women who worked at the school. (Another adult — the gunman&#8217;s mother — was found dead elsewhere; the gunman, identified as Adam Lanza, took his own life.) On Saturday evening, the Connecticut State Police released the names of those shot and killed in the Sandy Hook school: Charlotte Bacon, 6 years old; Daniel Barden, 7; Rachel Davino, 29; Olivia Engel, 6; Josephine Gay, 7; Ana Marquez-Greene, 6; Dylan Hockley, 6; Dawn Hochsprung, 47; Madeleine Hsu, 6; Catherine Hubbard, 6; Chase Kowalski, 7; Jesse Lewis, 6; James Mattioli, 6; Grace McDonnell, 7; Anne Marie Murphy, 52; Emilie Parker, 6; Jack Pinto, 6; Noah Pozner, 6; Caroline Previdi, 6; Jessica Rekos, 6; Avielle Richman, 6; Lauren Rousseau, 30; Mary Sherlach, 56; Victoria Soto, 27; Benjamin Wheeler, 6; Allison Wyatt, 6. There would be heartbreaking tales of the death of the school principal Hochsprung and that of first-grade teacher Soto, who friends said was shot as she shepherded her class into a closet, shielding them just as they came into the gunman&#8217;s sights. The staff was close-knit and loyal to the children in their care. &#8220;A lot of teachers stick around until they have to pretty much<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nation.time.com&#038;blog=20157722&#038;post=98586&#038;subd=timemilitary&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the history of lost causes, the figure of George McGovern casts a poignant shadow. His run for the White House in 1972 ended in one of the biggest electoral defeats in American presidential history. The Democrat’s unalloyed opposition to the Vietnam War, his unapologetic espousal of the concept of income redistribution, his belief that government was a solution to America’s problems, his unrepentant liberalism all formed part of what was even then a quixotic campaign. The egalitarianism inherent in McGovern’s agenda seemed too radical to a country that still trembled after the perturbing 1960s, a decade of protests and social experimentation. Instead, Americans re-elected Richard Nixon with his promise of stability and his faith in individual endeavor, finding comfort in his evocation of Eisenhower era family values. Shortly after, the country would be rewarded for its choice with one of its worst political scandals—and Nixon would resign a presidency ravaged by Watergate. “It’s true that I lost to Richard Nixon in the general election by a huge margin,” McGovern would joke years later, when the bitterness had subsided. “But that wasn’t my mistake. That was the mistake of the voters.” McGovern, who died today at the age of 90, did not make it easy for the electorate to stick with him and the Democratic Party. His 1972 defeat confirmed the end of the astonishing coalition assembled by Franklin D. Roosevelt—one made up of blacks and ethnic minorities, Jews, southern whites, labor. Southern whites, who had begun defecting to the GOP in 1968, completely left the tent; and the urban enclaves of blue collar workers—many the descendants of immigrants from central Europe—fractured in its support for the party because of many of McGovern’s advocacies, including busing. He did little to compromise his views to maintain the party’s traditional pillars of support. (PHOTOS: George McGovern, the Quiet Warrior: Photos From His ’72 Campaign) Opposition to America’s military operations in Vietnam would be at the heart of McGovern’s campaign.  And he brought to his stance a certainty born of experience.

		<description><![CDATA[Arthur Ochs &#8220;Punch&#8221; Sulzberger, the late publisher of the New York Times, is most celebrated – and rightly so &#8211; for his decision to go forward with publication the Pentagon Papers in1971. Punch was not a gifted journalist or a great editor or a brilliant executive. He was, however, something out of a Frank Capra movie – a man with a deep sense of decency and profound common sense who also had guts. It took great courage to publish the classified documents in defiance of the government&#8217;s demand that he stop. It was a seminal moment for American journalism because the nation&#8217;s leading journalistic institution, which was considered the heart of the mainstream press, had done something virtually unprecedented.

Punch was shocked, then annoyed, and finally defiant. Kennedy&#8217;s complaint was that Halberstam was not reporting the news the way the Pentagon was dishing it out. Halberstam&#8217;s critical and skeptical account of reality on the ground in Vietnam, however, was unusual. Other major news organizations were providing their readers with a much more unquestioning account of what<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=nation.time.com&#038;blog=20157722&#038;post=87161&#038;subd=timemilitary&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
