Bad News

Earlier today I found out two Marines I knew were killed earlier this month in Afghanistan. They were with 2nd Recon BN out of Camp Lejeune. Only reason I found out was calling back to Camp Lejeune. I can't even explain the pure anger I had and still have. Marines are now pulling out of Iraq and pushing into Afghanistan in force. America has let their pitbulls of the leash and their looking for throats. A little over six months and I will be back over there, i'm counting down the days until I can send them a message of my own. I also want to take this chance to thank all of you for the support that you give us, because this is a war we will not, and cannot loose no matter how long it takes. Politics and lack of support from home kept us from finishing the job in Vietnam and we do not need to have that happen again.

If I had the ***** I would have joined the Marines but since I'm a sissy, I went Navy. Nonetheless, be careful over there and open a can of @#$%^!@ on those creeps from all of us over here.

I pray God is with you and your buddies. But I fear Gods wrath is upon this nation for the things we now do and allow.

Unfortunately, pollitics prevented us from finishing the job in Iraq initially too. Then we paid for it later and are still paying for it including the retalliation from the outlying areas. No point in carrying the big stick if you can't do a full wind up when you swing it. Sorry about your buddies and good luck.
