I say we ship his sorry ass to Iraq. Put him on the front lines. Let's see if our troops will support him in the line of fire as much as he's supported them.
What a pompous ingrate. I don't fight in Iraq either, does that make me brave too?
He is a disgrace but I’m sure his troops that he refused to deploy with and are in Iraq right now don’t want his sorry rear end with them.
If I was in the front line in Iraq this would be the last officer I would want leading me, he would wind up either getting his own men killed or fragged.
While that has a certain visceral appeal - think of German and Russian army punishment battalions - it's a very bad idea: even as a private, his presence would possibly put some of our soldiers at greater risk than if they had a reliable soldier or officer with them. It's completely unacceptable that others should be injured for his very sorry ass.
I thought we should strap him to the front of a Stryker.... “Let us know where the IEDs are.”
