this is almost painful to watch... Geraldo is trying to be all buddy with them, and you can just tell what they're thinking... Geraldo put his hand on one soldier's shoulder, and the soldier looked over at Geraldo's hand and then looked straight into the camera rather than make eye contact with Jerry

Geraldo is always painful to watch ... even without the troops.

How did Baghdad Jerry weasle his way back into Iraq?

Am I glad to hear this! Some people had Geraldo as the soldier's best friend and I found it hard to believe from everyone I knew in the military that couldn't stand him.

Did you hear about the report that Keith Olbermann made regarding members of the 101st requesting to shake Geraldo's hand after placing them in disgusting places. Olbermann made quite a bit of an attack out it and my guess is that the soldiers were in a bit of hot water over the incident and ordered to be filmed with Geraldo.

Geraldo came to Parris Island around 1978-'79 to do a story on USMC recruit training. Got a boot hair cut, did a lot of recruit things, e.g., obstacle course, close order drill, PT, etc. with the privates. Lot of my Lieutenant buddies thought he was a "real stand up guy". Then he went on the TV with his 'special' and really slammed our training. It would not have been safe for him to pay a return visit to PI. He would have needed a medevac.

I read about Geraldo, "The Fake", on here. I will watch a Test Pattern before him. The people are finally wising up to "The Fake".

ergh...

I think they need to give Geraldo a little sabbatical.
