TONIGHT ON THE CBS EVENING NEWS
Here's a look at what we are working on for tonight's broadcast of The CBS Evening News: Hi everyone, Katie is off tonight. I'm Harry Smith. More than seven years after U.S. forces invaded Iraq, American combat operations have come to an end. President Obama marks the occasion tonight, in a nationally televised speech from the Oval Office (we'll stream it at cbsnews.com) Earlier today, he traveled to Fort Bliss in Texas, where he thanked U.S. soldiers who've recently returned from Iraq. Operation Iraqi Freedom is giving way to Operation New Dawn. But don't look for the President to declare "Mission Accomplished." Senior White House Correspondent Bill Plante will begin our coverage. 50,000 U.S. troops will remain in Iraq, primarily to train Iraqi soldiers. CBS News Correspondent Terry McCarthy traveled to a checkpoint in northwest Iraq to check their progress. And later in the broadcast, Dean Reynolds will profile some of the families of U.S. troops. For many, this is a happy time, as combat brigades return home. But for some, the war continues. Those families have a message for Americans: "don't forget us." Also tonight: Hurricane Earl is heading for a close encounter with the east coast. Earl is now a very strong Category 4 storm, and has made quite a mess in the Caribbean. They're starting to batten down the hatches in the Carolinas, where the hurricane is expected to hit later this week. CBS News Correspondent Don Teague is in Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina tonight with the latest. Mexico's drug war has been far deadlier than the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan combined. 28,000 people have died in the past four years as government troops have battled the drug cartels. But Mexico's President, Felipe Calderon, has scored a huge victory with the capture of one of the most notorious suspects in the country - an American-born kingpin, who's known as "La Barbie" for his fair complexion. Looks can be deceiving, though. He's accused of running a brutal turf war. CBS News Correspondent Ben Tracy will have that story. And they're two young girls, growing up in the White House. But what do Americans know about Sasha and Malia Obama? The family has tried to keep both out of the spotlight. But tonight, we're learning some new details about the First Daughters - including how much computer time they're allowed. Parents, you'll want to see this. See you tonight. Harry Here's an early look at one of the stories we are working on for Wednesday night's broadcast of The CBS Evening News: The new face of the war in Iraq. Soldiers looking to fight now find themselves carrying out a different kind of service. We'll explain tomorrow night, ONLY on The CBS Evening News.
