Wow, the Afghan National Army seems to be getting their act together. I've seen pictures of the Afghans in Western Army Uniforms and they just didn't fit in them. I good to see the ANA have a victory. And thanks to the Romanian Military assiting.

I've thought, if I were a NATO country, I'd want to participate in the Afghan War in part just to give my military real life experience. They could then bring that experience back home and incorporate it into training. Nothing beats real life experience.

Funny thing is, Yahoo “News” has as one of their top stories

“Another Province falls to Taliban”

Bravo Sierra of course, but the media is obfusticating at all levels now, they (the MSM) is doing everything that they can to ignore the solid progress that is being made.

More good news in Afghanistan and Iraq every day. Yet, the MSM fails to report it. Maybe we should be satisfied that the MSM doesn’t “misinform” instead.

Yes, if even 10% of your military is blooded it can have a great effect throughout the entire military.

the photo has to first uploaded and saved to a website like your ISP or fokoti.com then with a little html magic you can post it on FR. You can’t do it just from your HD though.

Can either of you ladies give Live free or die a further assist?
