I just got some more pics from our annonymous freeper in Iraq who is supporting operation Iraqi Freedom.
He asked that I post the pics here, taking care for him to remain annonymous.
After living and working through the siege of Fallujah, and numerous other in-the-news events, our freeper is hanging tough.
Still, the hours are long and the duty tough while supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom in the sands and deserts of Iraq. In addition to our annonymous freeper, many American citizens are there supporting our military and the people of Iraq in person, at great risk to themselves and with long seperations from family and home.
I know they appreciate the love, prayers and good wishes. They never can be too careful where they are at.
Wow! THANKS Anonymous Freeper, Troops, and Jeff for posting this!
I'll second that. Pass along our gratitude.
That hat looks familar...
You are welcome GM. We have a couple of our grandkids over here at our house and are sure enjoying their stay...it is for them, their well being, and their liberty that we fight, and support those actually on the ground in harms way.
God bless our armed forces and all who work toward democracy in Iraq.
What a brave man. Prayers sent.
We pray every Thursday night in class for American and Coalition military/civilians. We also have a recruiter in class and on the first night of the semester, when he walked in, everyone applauded. He said he gets that at McDonald's all the time, too! God bless and keep all of you safe!
Suggest you change the blue dots - makes him look too much like one of Teddy Kennedy's nephews ... how about red-meat red next time, or just a smily face?
BTTT
Lots of Americans wear hats like that, hehehe.
I wish it were mine...I tried to sign on at a couple of places but guess I'll have to remain content with the work I have been assigned here.
Amen...I know he appreciates the prayers.
May He in fact bless and keep them all. God bless you for your faith and prayers.
Is this man military or a commercial employee? Just wondering. Still a man of great honor. He goes there as a choice, voluntarily. That speaks volumes.
A smily face sounds pretty good.

"(To the soldier) THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE and SACRIFICE. God Bless you and keep you safe." And Bless you to for caring.
Just so you know. Soldiers are not in Fallujah. Marines are! Marines from the 1 Marine Expenditionary Force (1MEF).
Soon to be replace by the 2MEF out of Camp Lejeune.
I pray my nephew who is with the 2nd Battalion 2nd Marine Regiment (from camp Lejeune attached to 1MEF california),
is safely in the newly named Baghdad Int airport at this point. His Battalion was stationed just south of Baghdad, and during this deployment he also was in one of the four camps in Fallujah area, when all hell broke lose in April.
They are supposed to fly out of the combat zone over the next week or so. At any rate, sir or mam, 2/2 has removed quite a few hundred terroists and local malcontents during the last seven months. And those main 1MEF have removed thousands less to harm our men and women and those innocent Iraqi's waiting for a taste of real freedom and democracy.
Please give my regards to Anonymous FReeper Jeff and my ongoing prayers for all the guys serving in the military abroad and at home.
Talk about laying an egg with this post. :) HA!
Pass on to thank him for his service.
God bless your nephew and I am so thankful for his service.
Please read this fictional study as an answer to the radical stongholds standing in between the people of OIraq and their liberty.
