memorial day tributes
The strip's author is particularly interested in the soldiers that are currently fighting in [[Iraq]], and the strip generated a great deal of controversy when B.D., one of the main characters, lost a leg at [[Fallujah]]. Doonesbury went on to chronicle B.D.'s recovery process, and the strip's portrayal of the challenges faced by wounded veterans earned Trudeau - a strong critic of the politicians who started the war - The [[United States Army]]'s Commander's Award for Public Service.

Every [[Memorial Day]], Trudeau uses two or three Sunday comics to list the names of all the U.S. troops who have died in Iraq or [[Afghanistan]] the previous year.
