Thank you troops for all you do, for the tremendous risks you take and sacrifices you make everyday. God keep you safe!
You have my OK to kill lots of terrorists! Take no prisoners and save yourself the grief of the terrorists loving media and lefties.

Your right and when our media does tell us stuff so much of the time it is information that should not be for public knowledge. It puts our troops in danger. They are doing that with the IDF too, that awful CNN is horrible and does it all the time.
Thanks Jack!!!

Oh WT, as usual your comment is right on. Man, I love these good troops and their fantastic performance. Wish I was 30 years younger. I would join the Texas 36th Infantry, Natl Guard and volunteer for every deployment. Or I would still be SF and ya would not hear about what I was doing (hint: taking no prisoners 'cept for info, then making them free fall experts)
