Gray clouds sweep over the mountains around Blantyre, Malawi, bringing raindrops that tap at the windows of the men's ward in Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Inside, a young man sheepishly removes his shirt as a doctor and two medical students arrive at his bed. A brief exam reveals thrush, shingles, and wasting, and the med students diagnose a classic case of HIV. The doctor, Claire Scarborough, nods in agreement. Later, she estimates that 80 percent of the patients are HIV-positive. Many of them look young.

George W. Bush's decision to unilaterally invade Iraq in March 2003 has placed a severe strain on the US military. The Army currently has almost half of its 32 combat brigades deployed there, with two more assigned to Afghanistan. This means that three-quarters of its forces are either committed to combat zones or recuperating from recent combat.

A smooth black highway snakes leisurely through the banana and palm covered mountains just outside San Salvador's city limits, its four lanes immune to the deep valleys and jagged cliffs that line its shoulders. A steady stream of heavy tractor-trailers and shiny SUVs in the left lane celebrate the asphalt's miraculous triumph over the jungle as they hurtle effortlessly between volcanoes.
