Has anyone forwarded this to the proper authorities? If not, it should be.

" Assuming this is true to begin with...assuming he's a real person. A 1985 graduate has to be at least 35 years old and this says he's been in the military "about 5 years". I don't think the 101st takes 30 year old recruits."
I believe the age cut-off is 31.

Has anyone forwarded this to the proper authorities? If not, it should be. I have no idea how to contact the proper authorities. If you know, by all means, do so.

No, I hadn't seen this. I wonder if he's bucking for the top spot at the Peoria area's Howard Dean campaign HQ. I think he'll find the John Kerry folks more agreeable, since exploitation of military service is big over there.
He probably thinks he writes real purty (if, indeed, he wrote it by hisself), but he's dumber than a box of bricks if he thinks he's got the low-down on our geopolitics. I am not kidding about his campaign ambitions, because he sure sounds like a real die-hard "we're willing to destroy America to get back at George Bush" rat of the Terry McAuliffe/Al Hunt wing of that bunch.
Personally, I think he's a real piece of work to be sending political crap like this, regardless of motivation. I was under the impression that you signed up to serve, not to make political statements, but this is post-Hackworth America. As you know, my soldier complains about the climate and the bugs, not about the mission (or even the extended deployment). It does this dad proud to not have his son embarrass the branch by writing a letter that lets the whole world know that we have counterproductive fools in uniform below the rank of General.
Sickening. The Army should reward him with a quick plane ride home so he can be safe and sound in a country that doesn't shoot soldiers for making asses out of themselves. The powers that be can drum his unprofessional ass out and save us all some money on any veterans benefits, then after he is free as a bird he can get interviewed by a fawning Janeane Garofalo.
Yes, I am angry... I thought we grew 'em smarter than that out here.
