Keep these troop reports and pictures coming WT. Sometimes comments are superflous to the post, but we sure enjoy the heck out of reports of our wonderful heroes.

Thanks to both of you.
Sometimes when I just feel so overwhelmed at all the things that are ticking me off in this world, with the BS and weakness from our leaders, the holding back our troops have to do, open borders etc. The only way I can calm down inside my heart is to go read about our troops. big smile.
