A sad couple of days, FRiends. Last Thursday we lost TSgt Larry Bunn, USAF to a heart attack at an undisclosed base in SW Asia. Friday, Spc. Cody D. Suggs, USA, was killed in a non-combat incident at Kandahar Airfield. This Monday, Capt. Andrew D. Pedersen-Keel, USA, and SSgt. Rex L. Schad, USA, were KIA in Afghanistan by terrorists in the uniform of Afghan Security Forces. Also on Monday, five of our Troops were killed in a helicopter crash in Afghanistan.

Prayers ascending on high for our Fallen Brothers!



Where are the survivors of the massacre at Benghazi? The silence of the Obama Regime on this question is deafening!

Fiat Justitia, Ruat Coelum!

Genuflectimus non ad principem sed ad Principem Pacis!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

I heard about the 5 in the chopper crash but not the others. God rest their hero souls..

It’s time for them to come home. The mission is no longer valid and we’re wasting valuable lives. :(

Must retire – the 0445 Reveille approaches relentlessly.

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer, already mounts the parapet.

Thank you, Connie!
We went out for Italian tonight, to a very nice rustic place south of town. They cook their pizzas in a brick oven imported from Milan. Tonight they had crab linguine; the crab was just flown in from Alaska. Yummy!
