Enos, of Colorado Springs, Colo., were killed Friday, Aug. 17, 2012 in Farah province in Afghanistan. Eleven years after the U.S. began battling to rid Afghanistan of al-Qaida and the Taliban, the war has ebbed from the headlines. The question of just how to end it is barely mentioned in the speeches of this year's presidential campaign. Polls find most Americans just want it over. (AP Photo/U.S. Marines)
