Perhaps difficult to verify its authenticity, but no more difficult than trying to extract the truth from our "legitimate" news organizations.

Much more believable than CNN,CBS,NBC,ABC,MSNBC. I can barely stomach the lies they spew; especially after watching C-Span and seeing the truth as it happens and then watching the spectacle of spin.

The information coming from blogs & emails gets out the facts in the eyes of someone living it. The "media" is looking for sensationalism

Do not harrass, bother, pester, or annoy the Marines. They're probably better shots than you are.

Huh?

It's what somebody should've told the insurrectionists in Fallujah and al-Ramadi.

Wonderful e-mail. Do you mind if I highlight this portion?

"A lot of terrorists and foreign fighters are holed up in Fallujah. It has been a sanctuary for them. If they have not left town they are going to die. I'm hoping they stay and fight. This way we won't have to track them down one by one. This battle is going to be talked about for a long time. The Marine Corps will either reaffirm its place in history as one of the greatest fighting organizations in the world or we will die trying. "

I know Paul Kennedy...he is the CO of 2/4.

Not your average "Commander's letter to the Wive's Club", is it?

I keep speaking Psalm 91; especially "A 1000 will fall on their left and 10,000 on their right but it will not come near them, only with their eyes will they look and see the reward of the enemy."
