Engineering is the field that my son is going to pursue.

I do not know which specialty yet.

He won't be deployed anywhere for at least 6 years and he could be used in combat for mechanical reasons. More than likely he'd be in Kuwait or a support unit first.

No, they haven't given him a base assignment yet...but I think his boot camp will be in southern Texas.

Iraq is slowly coming apart. By the end of summer, it will be seen as a failure. Arabs only respect an iron fist.

Bush should have flattened Fallujah at the outset. I can't even imagine being the parent of somebody just killed there.

Why in heavens name are we acting like wussie UN peacekeepers? They don't want to be our friends, they want to kill us!

I'm amazed by the naivete displayed by those setting the dainty rules of engagement. Our playing tit-for-tat has cost us 700 Americans so far; do you think there is a chance in (heck) of success when we pull back June 30?

Our approach makes no sense. Either we run the place with an iron fist, or hand it over to Iraqi's to run. Trying to be buddies with them is costing too many lives IMO.

I give up. I'm at my wits end.

Mike said he was REALLY hoping for boot camp up north somewhere. Boot camp in the summer in Texas has to be brutal. Of course the Marine is calling him a wuss because Army BC is only 9 weeks.

Somebody should tell this conquered population to sit down, shut up and behave.

When is the shi#thole Fallujah going to be cordoned off and leveled?
***
That's what I'm wondering. There are no friendlies in that town. Its infested with Iraqi-(Viet)cong. I say: Napalm the place.
