There's always someone who wants to know "What if?"

ooooo yippee. That would be great. If you get a chance tell them how much we appreciate them. Sam, I think we need business cards. :-)

but I see that the West didn't draw the conclusions from Sep. 11 and there "must be" something new, something of enormous proportions, so they might understand that this is war, not holidays in a sunny country.

That's what I'm afraid of, too many here, including some of our leaders refuse to see that this is a war for the survival of Western Civilization. The West has become so PC we can't even see the threat anymore. It's like reliving the 1930's, the years of appeasement again.

Hmmmm..
That's true.
I, even though I was just a little lowly SPC-4, ended up dealing with brass often enough to have recurring nightmares about the "Brass Logic Flowchart".
Basically, if it makes sense it isn't what they do.
*chuckle*

Sounds like you're going to be lucky.

Nice picture. Makes one appreciate what how much Surabachi dominated the entire island.

ROFL. I know of what you speak. I spent my last 2 1/2 years running around with these on.

Colonels seemed especially affected by "Brass" logic..
