You can't treat a fungus with antibiotics, that's why they have anti-fungals, so I'm not sure about the rest of his history. Wild story.
"Uncle Sam put your name at the top of his list,
And the Statue of Liberty started shaking her fist,
And the Eagle will fly and it's gonna be hell,
When you hear Mother Freedom start ringin' her bell,
and it will feel like the whole wide world's rainin' down on you,
All brought to you Courtesy of the Red, White and Blue!"
Or vice-versa...
Amen and God bless our soldiers and America. My heart is so thankful for the men and women in our awesome military.
Are those current photos? I thought Phase III of OML was years ago.
May God be with them.
Very good points!

Thanks. All of our Warriors look the same in Afghani.
His dog??? man, that's just mean.

No, these are not current photos. I've not found any photos of this phase of Operation Mountain Lion. I don't think they release photo essays until months after it is over.
