The famous photograph of Mary McHugh prostrated on the grave of her late fiance, James Regan, was taken by photo journalist John Moore three years ago. It could have been yesterday. Arlington Cemetery’s Section 60 is where military service members who died in Iraq and Afghanistan lie. The place still makes the news — the superintendent, John Metzler Jr., just resigned — but for most Americans, Section 60 is not a place to talk of scandal or mismanagement.

Reports the London Times: Up to 100 civilians, including women and children, are reported to have been killed in Afghanistan in potentially the single deadliest US airstrike since 2001. The news overshadowed a crucial first summit between the Afghan President and Barack Obama in Washington yesterday. President Obama, after White House meetings with President Karzai of Afghanistan and Asif Ali Zardari, the Pakistani President, pledged “every effort to avoid civilian casualties” in the war against the extremists.
