Unfortunately the only thing wrong with the war in Iraq is women in a combat zone. I have no desire to lessen the contributions of Captain Hampton, or to place any blame on her for the unfortunate situation. She obviously loved the military and her job, but women in a combat zone, other than nurses, remains a very sore subject with me, and if anyone needs any more proof than Private Lynch, please let me know. The United States Military has been hijacked by the congress and other civilians and it ought to stop.

Commanders military wide should have the guts to say enough. I will not accept women in a combat zone, but this is pc and it isn't going to happen.

Whether or not you like women in the service, this is not the thread to raise that subject on.

This thread is dedicated to and about a SOUTH CAROLINIAN, A SOLDIER.

This is about a person who loved their country and served it in a capacity that they felt was necessary.

Thank you Captain Hampton. May GOD rest your soul and may HE give your parents peace and comfort.
