PHOENIX - A Valley group is asking for troops to come home from Afghanistan.
A mixed group of both military and non-military families held signs up at the corner of 24th Street and Camelback calling for an end to the war.
"This isn't a noble war we are fighting," said Lisa Blank.
Forty-five soldiers from Arizona have died in what is now America's longest war.
This weekend is the 11th anniversary of the war in Afghanistan.
