I suppose the troops do need moral.

Though, how many troops will they take away from patrolling Iraq and whatnot, in order to hold this event?

I also am wondering if the troops were given an oppertunity to decide whether or not THEY would like to hold the event. If then, they voted and decided that the majority would like to hold such a special event, it would be alright.

But if they are just being told, "the WWE are coming... so go make some preparations." then I wouldn't want them to be obliged and forced into accomodating the WWE, while they are already risking their lives fighting the war.

If this is what the troops all want, then it will be a great event for them. But if it is something thrown at them and is looked upon by most of the soldiers as a bad idea that is not worth the risk then why add that much more pressure ontop of the soldiers?

The idea is probally not a bright one but the intentions are in the right direction, provided if this is really what the troops want. However, there are so many things that could go wrong.
