Today I am going to a BBQ/ welcome home party for my Marine Delta nephew that just got home after 3 tours in Iraq.

Tell him that because of people like him nully is no longer proud to be an American.

I have seen what they have done.

They utterly destroyed one of the world's largest and best trained standing armies in a matter of weeks. OK, that's what we expect from them.

What impressed me was how well they comported themselves after the military victory.

Everything from restoring some semblance of order, building schools, hospitals, sewage and water systems, inculcating a population with no history of freedom with some concept of a constitutional democracy.

Doing all this while dead-enders are doing their dead level best to destroy them and everything they stand for.

Doing this in 120° weather, while not having so much as a sip of water in honor of the local religious customs during ramadan.

Doing it with a smile for the children, a kind word for the women, and respect for the men.

No, nully is no longer proud to be an American.

nully is now deeply and profoundly humbled to be an American, and to be able to count himself as a countryman of such men and women.

Amen, nully.

My screen got blurry all of a sudden.
