About Me
Latest Read
West is a very thorough historian and descriptive writer. Being the civilian I am, I tend to use a map and keep a short, ongoing set of notes to manage the military vernacular, but it's very worth it if you want to understand what really happened at the beginning of the Iraqi war and what transpired there and here politically since which brings us to this point.
One Marine's View
Major Pain is an active duty Marine officer dedicated to his Marines and their well being. Another great blog read.
Former Marine, outstanding patriot, husband, father. Good read!

You've got some great shots there, Hope. I feel for the soldiers in these wars, adn fear that they are going to come back and be treated similar to the Vietnam vetrans if recalled under the wrong conditions. Lets hope it all works out for the best, both at war, and when they return home.
Ahhhh....you boys be careful and come back home safe...
We're praying for you all over the place. Got you covered.
...go get those bad dudes!!
Amen. We need to bring them home. I'm tired of this war.
Know that you have loads of support and prayers coming from us here in Texas. We want to see you all come home safe and sound.
Be careful out there guys!
From Sgt. Smitty:
First and foremost I wish Kilo Company a safe and speedy return trip home! They have earned it as always!

These Marines in these photos are fighting "The Global War on Terrorism" (GWOT for short). You are right, if we are pulled out under the wrong conditions it will not only affect all of us for many different reasons, it will leave a much bigger "mess" for the next generation of warriors to clean up!

I see every day what is at stake in this war. This is my 8th deployment. We have invested much time and energy into our and the Iraqis endeavors for peace and stability here. I am very proud of my Marine Corps and the caliber of men and women it takes to do the job we are doing here that doesn't get reported back there.

Thank you for your thoughts and prayers where ever they may come from Texas or not.
Thank you all for the prayers and the support.
