According to this article, 60 % of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 couldn't find Iraq on a map. Somehow I'm thinking of an army marketing campaign. It could go along the lines of "If you can't find Iraq on a map, and want to improve your geography skills, join the army and we'll send you there!" I guarantee our boy and girls over there know exacty where it is now. Another sad finding was that 60 % thought the most heavily fortified border in the world was between the US and Mexico. :-)
