great read. It appears your main character knew he was doomed but wanted his mother to remember him when she saw the flag he served.I would ask anyone who is upset by the sight of "OLD GLORY" not to see what upsets them but to see what gave "OLD GLORY"her name(the better parts).for example M.L. King Jr.,G.W. Carver. B.T.Washington,T.A.Edison and so on
great read. The sad parts are that this can be said of any war since the invention of gunpowder and ceiling fans. The unfortunate part is this may still be true for some time to come. Again great read.
Great job. Thank you SPC. I just retired. I was in Iraq in05.I would like to ask a protester if they want to trade places with anyone over there,thus EARNING the right to complain. again great job and thanks on behalf of ALL your brothers/sisters in arms(past and present).
great read.There is one more sound of freedom which is older than the sonic boom but is not often heard unless it is in honor of the departed or in defense of the law,(the fire of either rifles(honor/law) or pistols(mostly law).
Great read. It does sound like fiction but i believe it. I have spent much of my life reading military stories(fact and fiction). Remember"Fact is stranger than fiction."? Now you know why many of your brother combat veterans do not talk freely of their war stories unless it is with another combat vet. again great read.
great read. You have made it a current convoy but unfortunately ,with little change, it could be almost any war you can name in history. Again great read.
great read. On their behalf thank you. Have you ever heard"I'd tell you but then I'D have to kill you"? If some soldiers told you what they have been through the story alone might kill you.again great read and thanks
great read. Own the land-#1 they can't afford the price paid for it by others in their stead.#2 they would waste it faster than is being done now.#3who would rent from them?
sounds good-both what you have written and the fact you hope&pray you are wrong. I share your belief so much I have come up with the only way to win a nuclear war. Get a catcher's mit and find ground zero. The first death will be the winner. Unfortunately I also believe our weapons,especially nukes, have reduced their size not their destructive force.
I am sorry the military interfered with your career. Can you say it has helped those who have come home missing limbs or those who came home in body bags. If the American dollar is that weak why do people still sneak across the border to earn it and send it back to their homelands? When was the last time people paid to have themselves smuggled into Europe only to wind up dead in the trailer of an 18 wheeler? How big is a W.M.D.? What are the formulas for any of them? How are they dispersed? What is the difference between a lie and military misinformation? If The U.N. Security council is the main power why did Saddam defy it? What nation seems to be turned to as world police?What nation do terrorists fight for? what uniform do they wear?If the Euro is that powerful why are we still being targeted by extremists?
Sorry but I would like some of the above answered. but not by an economist.
