We are behind you guys 150 percent! Thank you for taking care of the bad guys over there so we don't have to deal with them here. Semper Fi!

I live in Central New York State and the Amsterdam Police Department asked folks to donate money to them for phone cards for our military in Iraq. So I told my husband not to buy me anything for Christmas, but to give me the money to send for this cause. Then he told me not to buy him anything either and to send them more money. And please, Freepers, keep that petition for the Marine going at "Petitiononline".
Great Report! God Bless the Troops for their Incredible Bravery!
Heads up Niko!
Semper Fi
Terrific report! Thank you for the post and your service.
I was in the middle of reporting panic values( multi -tasking) and saw the Gary Owen insignia you sent me and teared up. My son is 1-7 Cav. Anything to do with 1st Cav really gets to me. Those guys make me so proud.

RE: Magazines and such for the guys downrange.
I know couple of guys at Georgia Tech through a local car club. As the Spring semester was ending, they collected a *big* pile Stuff, FHM, and Maxim magazines from the dorms for me (about 1' high). I shipped those over to an online friend's son in Iraq, where they A) made it (was unsure about that, given content censorship) and B) were much appreciated.
I know they'd appreciate Maxim, etc., but I have trouble, as a Christian, giving that stuff. So I make do with the PC Sports Illustrated (which I would never subscribe to myself because of its editorial crap).

Fair enough.
BTW, here's the contents of the last boxes I sent. I need to do another one in the next week.

I assume the Sergeant Major was referring to their efforts at snorting cocaine! These guys are cowards and could only do things like that coked up.
Great post. There are a couple of opsec things that could stand being removed, though....
Save for later read.
