Maybe it stopped because the guy with the $800k was the paymaster.

Our S-3 replied that he's here on a 7 month jihad of his own.

Some of the locals told us that the "3 day jihad" had come to an early close because of the casualties the bad guys had taken the last 2 days. Pisser.

Are these Marines jacked or what ?

Our so-called mainstream media hates us.
Hates the military, the GOP, and everything
we represent and cherish, including God.
Hell, they are the enemy within.
No doubt about it.

"The truth shall set us free! Too bad we can't get it from the 'Mainstream Media.'"

The reason is that the "Mainstream Media" do not want us free.

Great story..
It's really too bad that most civilians will never really comprehend the reality of what these men are facing..

It will be a life defining experience for all of them, and will form brotherhood bonds that will last their lifetime and beyond...

May God spare them, and allow them to return home safely and in one piece...

Semper Fi
