What a great job our men and women in uniform are doing in storm ravaged areas.It only took the General and the troops a few hours to restore a semblance of order.
Our troops are truly the greatest force for good the world has ever seen.

FYI : Look in upper right corner of "My Comments" page.
Set it for "Brief" instead of Full.
