Without getting into specifics, I have it on good authority that at least one Marine battalion is getting the sh*t kicked out of it in the Helmand Province. These apologies are getting more than a little g*dammed tiresome.

Spok:

Thank you for your service. Yes, the “war” in Afghanistan deserves our (and the administration’s) full attention.
My nephew in Khost province does not paint a much rosier picture.

Again, thank you for your service, and your comment. I hope our sons and daughters will be able to hold the line until adults are in charge.
