He sounds like a good leader. He should become a Marine officer instead.

Hey, let's not just post nice comments about this.
Does any Freeper know ANYBODY high up the food chain who could help this guy into the US and in the Marines?
Couldn't we make this a Freeper project?

My guess is that Frankie can connect him to some folks at one of the German bases.

The fact the this is an official DoD news story means that Gen Pace, and SECDEF will see it as well as all the Command Sergeant's Majors and Command CPOs' and you can't get any higher that; well you can,.... but GW is a little busy right now.

He well could become a Marine officer, and if he does, he could be a good one. But one step at a time. Let him cherish, first, some moments spent with the men and women from the rank and file of America that he may someday lead. In fact, that's the way it works. Armed forces enlistment and honorable service expedites achievement of formal citizenship under the laws thereunto pertaining, and U.S citizenship expedites military commissioning. He looks like a really good guy for our side, but let's size him up in the usual ways for his sake and our own. This is a complex world now, and the old saying "when in doubt, check it out" applies. So let the proper authorities check him out and let us meanwhile hope he is a jewel, as he certainly seems to be, and joins us, the few and the proud.
