Enjoy this clip of the troops killing an insurgent vehicle and then later handing out school supplies to kids. All in a days work.

You are very welcome. There is a whole slew of footage that the Pentagon has recorded and archived. I’ve been going through some of it and posting what can.

Too cool! Can we strap down the antiamerican whack jobs (i.e., Pelosi and Moore) “Clockwork Orange” style and make them watch this?

It wouldn’t make a difference. I do think that not enough has been done by conservatives with media outlets to consistently get the message out. If they’d just devote an 30-60 minutes a week out of their schedule to promote our soldiers not just through words of support but through showing the footage of what they are doing. Profiling soldiers that have returned and letting them speak for themselves.

That little dude wanted the big can of beans more than the toys they offered him!

When I read the title, I thought the topic was going to be about Ralph Nader and the Corvair.

Actually it was a can of paint, according to the Arabic speaking Iraqi soldier.

Well may be the little dude wants to be a handy man :)

It seems that the majority of the kids wanted a football.

When I read the headline of the article I was going to have fun with it, but after I watched the video the fun was overtaken by my admiration, appreciation, awe, and respect for what you folks do.

Thanks AMERICA.

Sincerely,

Mirado

When they found this insurgents vehicle, they should have done things a little different, and planted a remote control explosive device in the vehicle, with GPS, waited for the insurgent to drive off, see where he goes for intelligence, and then detonate it.
