Soldier breathes life into Iraqi child

MOSUL, IRAQ - Security forces from Task Force Freedom conducted a miraculous act on a young Iraqi boy in Mosul December 15. Soldiers were patrolling a neighborhood near a home where an Iraqi man was seen holding a lifeless baby who had drowned in the flooded basement of their home. The child had a blue tone to his body as a medic, SPC Lucas Crowe, from 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment administered aid to the 3-year old boy. The child became responsive, released water from his mouth and screamed a cry that Soldiers were elated to hear. After resuscitating the young boy, the combat medic from 2-1 Infantry turned the child on his side and monitored his breathing until an ambulance arrived.

Multi-National Forces of Task Force Freedom continue efforts to aid Iraqi citizens and assist them in providing security.

Missed this in the midst of the election, but a very worthy story.

Great news from Iraq!

Maybe the US Military could buy some space in our mainstream media in order to get this story out.

"And there is no reason, Bob, that young American soldiers need to be going into the homes of Iraqis in the dead of night, terrorizing kids and children, you know, women, breaking sort of the customs of the – of – the historical customs, religious customs," Kerry said Sunday. "Whether you like it or not ... Iraqis should be doing that."

Why cant' we just punish the DemoTraitors as capital offfenders per the Constitution?

[Abathar]

Excellent post

There ain't enough money in the world for that.....

Open season on traitors, no limit and no license required.

LOL. As we well know, that's the only way it would happen.

[Ursus arctos horribilis]

Thanks for the catch and post, of course, the LMSM will ignore, or turn it into a Kerry terrorist act.

[mewzilla]

God bless our troops.

[definitelynotaliberal]

There they go, terrorizing kids and children, er, er, er, you know, women - AGAIN! G*******t! There's no reason why young American soldiers should be going into their neighborhoods.

[FNG]

They are not worth my bullets. If the Constitution was a "controlling legal authority", the Fed would use my tax dollars to try and execute it's own traitors.

[vigilante2]

I thought our guys were terrorists?

only in the minds of the enemy

[Abathar]

And also that lucky little child who's life was saved by those "terrorist soldiers"

[gulfcoast6]

Notice? New York times did not print it.

[AliVeritas]

You know what? That's really not a bad idea. That may be the only way we can get good news out via MSM.

[Cinnamon]

MSM would the act of buying the news story. no such luck
