in case you don't know, the writer Joe Galloway was the co-author of the book "We Were Soldiers Once...And Young".


Thanks for posting the link. I'm the mom in the story. Mr. Galloway was kind enough to autograph three copies of his book with messages for each one of my sons while he was here. What impressed me the most about him is that he spent more time with the Joes than he did with the officers for this interview. When we discussed the Anti-War protestors he said"The Hell with them!!!". (Sorry don't boot me for the bad word.)
He may write some critical stories about the brass and leadership from time to time but he has no love for the commie protestors.

It IS a small world, after all.
Galloway seems to be the sort of combat journalist I can like: whether it using a pen/pencil
or a submachine gun, he directs his fire in the right direction.

I'm logging off in a few minutes...and packing two care packages; one to a US Army chaplain
in the Baghdad area, one to an artillery soldier north of Baghdad.
Cheers to your loved ones now serving.
