Joel, if you’re reading this, you’re a hero. Get well soon, go over and kick some butt, and return safe and victorious.

I think it’s the 82nd that has been rotating back into Ft. Bragg from Iraq. The 18th will soon be going back there. The 18th has been back for awhile now so I think their next turn at bat is coming in the next few months.

It was a long day and just now checking in. Last night went well. Still in the warm, lower 40s. Most of the snow had melted in D.C. so the corners were clear.

Looking forward to your next visit. You always bring warmer weather.

Thanks for the great AAR. I’m glad there were some good pics of Joel. I don’t get surprised often but seeing him out in the cold weather certainly was one of those times.

Being at WR is the least we can do for our soldiers.

Reading this in Baghdad does my heart good. It’s been two years now, but we civilians are pretty spoiled here. I look forward to joining y’all next time I am in DC.

Heck - I’m from Paramus, NJ. Sadly, I’ve only met a single NJ soldier since I arrived in Iraq. Today, we have Bob Menendez in the Palace’s Green Bean. Suffice it to say, I will be busy watching FoxNews in my office.

I look forward to the day (night) I can be there to stand with you.

My only gripe with the “Peace Through Victory” sign is that it leaves room for morons to imagine that there is any other way to achieve peace.

I would appear those anti-war idiots just don’t seem to get it yet.
