Excellent, thanks!
To contact the Major: William.Truax@vcmain.hq.c5.army.mil.
It's great to hear information unfiltered from the source. I dropped the Maj a note.
God Bless him and his guys over there.
Firstly,
I stand smartly at attention and salute you Major. May the good Lord return you and your men save once you complete your honorable tour of duty. Just about everything you said can be verified by many sources, such as articles written by 1MEF at the Marine Corps. main site OIF.
I hope many people read closely what you wrote and copy the article and email to people they know. I know what you said was nothing but hard correct facts! HOOOORAAH.
My nephew is attached to 2/2 Hq. S2 and has been between camps Mahmudiya and one of the four camps in Fallujah since March. They are on convoy going south as we write as you most probably are well aware. So praise the good Lord I will in about two weeks be walking around Camp Lejeune waiting to wrap my arms around my Marine soon! He has seen fellow Marines blown up, and has had to return fire in some battles during these seven months. So I for one know somewhat you guys are going through over there.
YOU ARE THE BEST OF AMERICA as our President made known last year. Now if only ALL AMERICANS can realize the truth in that statement. You are warriors with a heart of gold, placing yourselves between enemy fire and innocent children and women. If the damn sneaky ultra liberal MSM had even a shred of honesty, they would be showing people what you guys have accomplished under such adverse and un-predictable conditions. But Major. Keep the faith. MANY OF US DO KNOW THE TRUTH. There are many of us in the States that know why you must be there, and keep praying for you guys. I think more so then first appears.
So in closing. Thanks for the article I understand the need for you to share the info. God bless you and all our
servicemen/women that serve with honor and commitement.
Semper Fidelis Major. personel correspondance accepted.

I am urgently seeking someone to adopt a soldier that was mistakenly given to me. I'm afraid to send it back for fear that this soldier will get lost in the paperwork. I have already adopted someone and can't afford another.
If anyone is interested, please freepmail me.
Thank you, Sir, for you service to your country and to freedom-loving Iraqis. Thank you also for serving your country by giving us the straight story on what's going on in Iraq.
As a Marine who has just returned from Iraq and who also worked on the Multichannel Corps staff I completely agree with the content of this letter. The situation in Iraq is grossly misunderstood by the media. During nearly every day of my time in Iraq from January through August we experienced significant victories and advancements. We were able to establish an independent sovereign state in Iraq in little over a year of hard work. Indeed Iraq has progressed at an incredible pace and as long as we remain committed to victory the progress of freedom will continue until Iraq is stable, secure democratic and free. Sure there were tough spots along the way, but even during the height of the Fallujah crisis in April we achieved greater success than failure especially in terms of tactical gains against the insurgency. The reality is that the government of Iraq is truly gaining traction and as we move toward the January elections Iraqi society will continue to develop essential democratic institutions at every level. Additionally the rebuilding of Iraq's infrastructure continues to out pace the insurgent's efforts to derail the rebuilding process. While it is not easy going and the insurgency remains a very destabilizing threat, every day the Iraqi government, security forces, and society get stronger and the insurgency gets increasingly isolated and desperate.
