Just thought I’d make a “comment” on the administration’s bringing home the ‘combat troops’ a few weeks ago. Come on, we’ve got 50,000 troops left there with guns and stuff and there is still plenty of crap happening and they’re not considered combat troops? Just because they’re not with the Stryker Brigade or an Airborne Battalion they’re not combat troops? I’m sorry, if you wear a uniform for this country and are in a place where there is shooting … even once in a while … you’re a combat trrop. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it …

Oh man, remember that real strong GI coffee in the break shacks? Whew, it was like tar. If you were young and kind of lacked in the hairy chest department, that stuff brought you right up to speed! I feel like such a woosie drinking decaf these days with a lot of milk!!!!

Have a great weekend, thanks for visiting and come back soon. Remember, you can leave comments anytime, let me know what’s on your mind … funny stories, whatever!

This is a different color version than the one previously updated. I couldn’t stand looking at it! So I re-colored it and put this one up … I like it better.

The coonskin hats are still not effective against IEDs but they sure are cool looking! Maybe Kentucky Guard units can use coonskin pattern helmet liners on troops being deployed.
