I know it pales in comparison, but do be sure to let Brad & his family know how much we really do appreciate him and his sacrifices and service for us.

Good job, Brad.
You've done your country, your family and all of us proud!
You have had an honor and an experience few of us will ever get. Savor it, save those pictures and preserve your fresh recollections of this monumental day!
Many years from now, your grandchildren will thank you for doing just that.

Many thanks for sharing Brad's letter with us! I think President Bush felt equally honored to be with Brad!

Anybody wanting to send goodies to the troops can check out the WA freeper page. I posted Brad's address there a couple ofdays ago and a few people are sending him stuff to disperse to his guys; snacks and stuff like that.
I'm sending AA batteries, shoe insoles, magazines, snack stuff, a couple of disposable cameras, some envelopes and stationary (note: they don't need stamps, postage is free in a war zone), and I think I'll send that old nerf hoop from the basement and a ball. He can put it on the side of his vehicle.LOL

I re-read this email and noticed this.
Well, a Colonel sat in the seat to my right and a General said you can't sit there
How about that tool trying to horn in on the higherups to score points. I guess some things never change. He has a story to tell his kids. "I tried to suck up to Condoleeza Rice and Paul Bremer and got tossed out of the President's seat." His daughter will respond with, "Daddy, is that why they call you a brown nosing perfumed prince?"
To: big ern
Wow! What a great example of the humble young men and women who stand ready to defend America. Special blessings for this young man and his family.

Dear Big Ern,
Thank you so much for sharing this tearjerker. It's such a heartwarming reminder... that we have such honorable, decent soldiers, protecting us from the enemy.
Please let Brad know that this country stands solidly behind our troops ..especially our FReepers.
Bless our Troops and keep them safe from harm.

HOOOO-AHH!
Hey ern, I think you should forward the letter to Rush, Sean, Hugh and the rest of the usual talk radio suspects.

Sounds like, with his record and this recognition, it's time for Brad to apply to OCS.
Way to go, Brad!

Wow! This made my day. What a contrast to She-Who-Must-Be-Obeyed's visit.
God bless Brad & all of our Troops and God bless our President!
To: Action-America
Well, there's good and bad that go with that route.
To: big ern
May the Lord bless this soldier. We honor and respect and thank all our beloved soldiers.

*Colonel, I've got a very important mission for you,* said the president to the eager and brave young colonel, *We're depending on you.*
*The soldier needs another turkey leg, and I'll take another bowl of cranberry sauce. And a glass of milk. Think you can handle that without screwing it up?*
