They still believe that this is the greatest country ever, and that it is worth defending. They may not support the President or his decisions regarding Iraq, but they do support their country, and part of that support is joining the military.

You need to remember that in a small rural area everyone knows each other. So ofcourse they are going to hear about deaths in iraq of people they know. In a city everyone keeps to themselves and their is no trust. They are less likely to be affected in this manner.
