Yeah, and we stopped "goat-ball" too. PETA would be proud. Liberals should be glad were over there.
Most of my military neighbors come back from TDY assignments saying the media is suppressing the good news. One friend, who was wounded and may never walk again, cherrfully admits he'd go back in a minute - it's worth it.
Local guy in my area just got back, says he want to return to duty in iraq.
His wife had a cow and went to the paper about it.
Big article asking every nosy bitty in the Hudson Valley, "SHOULD he go BACK?!"
*shaking head*
He's a soldier, signed up for a commitment, and feels it's important.
Why does the Hudson Valley have to give permission for him to go?
(And why do some wives have to be so lacking in understanding about the military?)
*shrugs*
Wish to God that some common sense would break out here in NY state, not that it's gonna happen.
