To: Alas Babylon!
Thanks AB for the thread as usual.
Wow a bunch of faces I have never seen before(usual suspects)
Here is a topic, story, that none of the msm/dbm will find or report but it goes on almost daily in Iraq and is the true story of the war.
Jessica Gaulke, Miss Minnesota, will resign her post after she makes a Rose Bowl appearance Ina few weeks.
More money? Other opportunities? Going back to college? Getting married, she sure is pretty enough, hardly.
Jessica will be joining her unit in Iraq.
Because, you see she is a diesel mechanic in a reserve unit that was called to duty and will leave for Iraq soon.
Here is her comment on being taken away from a life that the average girl would die for.
"I'll be there for all of us over here"
After you wipe away the tears remember there are lot of our kids who are over there doing the jobs you seldom read about and winning the hearts and minds of the Iraqi citizens for the cause of Freedom.
Her story is at chron.com or

If that wasn't good enough here is antoher story about what our troops are doing in Iraq:
This one is at Gateway Pundit:

M/Sgt. John Gebhardt is shown holding an injured Iraqi child in his arms as he sleeps from exhaustion from not only fighting the war but volunteering in his off duty time to one of the local hospitals in war torn Iraq.
These are the kind of men and women who are fighting the WOT, and should never ever be forgotten. You have to see the photo it is awe inspiring.

These are the people we let down when we allowed the dems to take over congress. I feel so unworthy of the efforts of these heroes.
Some felt the need to punish the President because he spent money on education?
It breaks my heart.

Rod, that's A Chief Master Sergeant, not a Master Sergeant, holding that child while sleeping. The story was, the little girls family was wiped out by terrorists before her eyes, she was then shot in the back of the head, but miraculously survived. The Chief has been her constant companion, and can only sleep when he holds her. She needs to sleep to recover from her head wound, and the Chief makes sure he's always around when she gets tired.

Nice touching links there, Rod. Thanks. Media don't want to report these stories.
Here 's Fallen Hero Jeffrey Toczylowski's e-mail.
"Don't ever think that you are defending me by slamming the Global War on Terrorism or the U.S. goals in that war,"............. I died doing something I believed in, and have no regrets except that I couldn't do more."
If only these things were reported fairly.........
