This is a very specific list of wars. I'd be bummed out if I'd fought in Kosovo, Syria, Somalia, or many other places where there have been conflicts, but who can complain about a road named for his three specific wars? Note that they didn't pick the usual (for Oregon) one-lane or even two-lane road, but a two-lane road with temporary third lane in the middle for turns.

I just came across this picture from 2010. At the time, I'd warned colleagues that Bigfoot had been spotted at Camp Dwyer in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. Nine years later, I still haven't figured out what he was doing there, or whose side he was fighting for.
