I spent all night last week with the 18 year old son of my buddy Walker who died when an enemy mortar scored a lucky direct hit on his tank. He had seen Saddam Hussein throwing a tantrum on TV and walking out of court with his lawyers, and could not understand why his father had to die, but 15 years later, this man who started it all is afforded such luxuries. This poor kid, who has known poverty, pain and loneliness his whole life has been denied justice because of polical equivocation. Still, he is signing up to serve. I am filled with indignation. My guilt is overwhelming.

You could learn more than a few things from that fine young man. And I will lecture you about your lack of integrity whenever I feel like it, Devil Dawg.

His story is my story. Different war, same equivocation.

Your claims of my lack of integrity are not supported by facts in evidence.

You may address me as SENTINEL or Marine, Devil Dog is a term of endearment use by friends.

I will continue to defend this country no matter how much resistance terrorists and people like you throw up.

It is not unreasonable to demand that these things are solved once and for all (like WWII for example) on the battlefield, instead of endangering civilians due to political cowardice.
