On Internet Blogs, Soldiers in Iraq Offer Up Inside Story on the War

BAGHDAD -- There were no reporters riding shotgun on the highway north of
Baghdad when a roadside bomb sent Sgt. Elizabeth Le Bel's Humvee lurching into a
concrete barrier. The Army released a three-sentence statement about the
incident in which her driver, a fellow soldier, was killed. Most news stories
that day noted it briefly.
But a vivid account of the attack appeared on the
Internet within hours of the Dec. 4 crash. Unable to sleep after arriving at the
hospital, Le Bel hobbled to a computer and typed 1,000 words of what she called
"my little war story" into her Web log, or blog, titled "Life in this Girl's
Army," at http://www.sgtlizzie.blogspot.com .........

....At least 200 active-duty soldiers currently keep blogs. Only about a
dozen blogs were in existence two years ago when the U.S. invaded Iraq,
according to "The Mudville Gazette" ( http://www.mudvillegazette.com ), a clearinghouse of information
on military blogging administered by an Army veteran who goes by the screen
name
Greyhawk............
