Good morning.

If only the rest of the flippin MSM would act as if they were on our side.

I just came back from our local Wal Mart. There was a large binder where we can write personal messages to our soldiers.
I wrote a page for our family and tomorrow will go again to write a page for freepers.
We owe them everything we have.
Re #64 -
Rush mentioned this image today - he said the Soldier had "war paint" on, but to me that facial discoloration looks more like "eccymosis" or bruising, as if something recently blew up in his face. The pattern of bruising is more consistant, IMHO, with concussion than with impact trauma.
I think that whatever happened, he's darn lucky to still have eyes!
And even though I havn't smoked a cigarette in over 25 years (still fire up a pipe on occasion) I think I'd be glad for one after what this young Warrior just went through!
This, alas, is how Veterans are made. And no amount of training, however realistic, can substitute for "seeing the Elephant" of actual combat.
A lot of them will have that "Thousand Meter stare" when they come home - but these are the Soldiers and Marines that a Field Commander will want to take into Battle if they can.
For they have been tested, and tempered like steel in the hellfire of War.
