I am very glad to hear that. My brother is in Iraq-again-but can’t really say much from wherever he is. My cynicism gets the best of me these days.
My husband was there last year. After the election results came out the reaction among the ranks was largely disgust but they were told “if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all”.
Many of our friends initially talked about getting out so they wouldn’t have to serve under this travesty, but realized the USA is more important than this mistake by the voters.
Hopefully it will be a short-lived mistake.
