This thread is set aside for post, e-mails, letters that freepers have received from friends and love ones from Afganistan, Iraq, etc. that they desire to share with us.

Hello all It's another day in paradise for me. Ha ha. Anyway, while libs may try to discredit it I have seen first hand the proof that the fly paper theory is sound and it does work. I would rather face Haji here than in our hometowns. Fallujah has died down a lot becuase of the hard work that every one is doing. Just a few things that I want to share with you. If a civilian gets killed here it is usually because they have failed to heed numerous warnings from US soldiers. So don't get to teary eyed when the Media misleads you with BS about civilian casualties. The way things really are is that at worst were are a nuisance to the civilians. an incovieneice that they would like to avoid but will tolerate. The alternative is far worse for the locals, to live under the rule of the Haji. Anyway Fallujah will be rebuilt and we will go on to other places in search of Johnny Jihad. Just fight the good fight for us back home and don't let the media lies disturb any of you. Thank you all and much love.

Martywake.

I was in the village of AL Karma jsut outside of Fallujah during the early days of the operation and am now hunting the insurgents in Mosul. They come from all over but are mostly former regime elements funded by Syrian Mujahadeen and terrorists from al-queda type cells but they all have one thing in common. They deserve to DIE! I ahve seen them mortar women and children to try to get at us and they will hide in Mosques and crowds to shoot at us. I just want to say thank you for your support. It makes this mission worth doing knowing that there are people like ya'll back home. Good bless you all. Good night.

From Iraq~

Thank you for your letter. I appreciate you taking the time to write to a complete stranger. Makes me feel wonderful to know that there are still so many great Americans that have been behind the military up until now. All your support is greatly appreciated. America stands for freedom, and thats what we will defend. It's because of people like yourself that America has always been strong and fearless. Thank you for all your support. God Bless you and your family. Take care of yourself.

Another one from Iraq~

Hello, how are you doing? I'm doing great, just ready to get back to family and friends.. Your letter was very inspiring and I let a few others read it so they too could see how greatly our work is appreciated. Sometimes we sit around and wonder what we are really doing here, but your letter pretty much hit it right on the dot. lol I'm 23 years old and been in the army for almost three years now and I'm about to get promoted to Sgt.. Should have been promoted a few months back, but my job is a "fight for anything everyday". I'm a sniper in a recon platoon and have been doing this since I came into the army. I love what I do, but don't think I could do it for 20 yrs. Real world missions put alot of stress and pictures in your head. We get used alot, all over this country, so we travel pretty frequently. You asked about A/C in your letter. lol That is funny you ask. We have it for about 5 minutes then it goes out for about 2 hours. So, we do, but we don't! lol It was very hot over here this summer..it's starting to cool down tho. Again, I want to thank you for your support and time. I hope to hear back from you soon. God Bless you and your family. Take care.
