An Iowa soldier was hurt in an attack on a U.S. base outside Bagdad. A Wednesday-evening attack on base wounded 35 soldiers, including a Forest City man. 22-year-old Specialist Brian Chisholm, a member of the eleven-33rd Transportation Company, was hot by shrapnel during the attack, about 6-45 p.m. Bagdad time. Chisholm’s family was notified by military authorities, who told them the injuries weren’t life-threatening. Chisholm was briefly hospitalized but his mother Lisa says they learned just before midnight last night that Brian had been released from the hospital and returned to his unit.
