Mostly a long rant/whine about how tough it is to be at war. I don't doubt that it is tough, but there are thousands of other dedicated men and women working hard right next to you, bud. Suck it up.
Coolest Insurgent Act — Stealing almost $7 million from the main bank in Ramadi in broad daylight, then, upon exiting, waving to the Marines in the combat outpost right next to the bank, who had no clue of what was going on. The Marines waved back. Too cool.
This should give you an idea where this "soldier's" heart is.
It's disgraceful.
Oops! I meant "Marine's".
Oh, GMAFB.
Complaining is what troops do.
I was first told in OCS that, if my men were bitching about food and conditions and making these types of observations, morale was bad.
