there was a documentary I saw on History International Sunday night
"Combat Diary: The Marines of Lima Company"
Featuring candid interviews and never-before-seen video, we tell the story of the hardest hit combat unit of the Iraq war. Lima Company, 3rd Battalion, 25th Marines, a reserve unit out of Columbus, Ohio was deployed to Iraq from February 28-September 30, 2005. This two-hour documentary captures significant moments from their tour of duty, including dramatic combat missions.

It was a good thing he was OK. It would have been devastating if he was killed.

I've seen video from a fried that had to go around kicking doors down.
One time they opened up to a couple guys holding ak-47's , a firefight ensued and all I can say is, wow. War is an ugly thing.

Here's a thought for EVERONE.. who wants to support the troops...
I have collection boxes at 3 bars that I "hang out" in ... we collect items and ship them to the troops.. post offices sends the packages for "I believe" around 8-9 dollars...
items they WANT AN NEED....
Tampax - Kotex - Superglue--- used for wounds.....
Toothpaste, Toothbrushes, OREO COOKIES.. Hickory Farms gift packs they love the sausages, hard candy, deodorant and soap non scented, disposable razors, phone cards,
after collecting large boxes around once a month, we package them... run a couple of 50/50 jars to get the postage -- I'd like to add that NO ONE HAS EVER TAKEN HIS 50% of the winnings..
just 3 small local bars.. we've sent over 150 packages to date.. and we'll get around 10 or so more in a couple of weeks....
put a little note in the box addressed to no one in particular and tell them how much you appreciate their sacrifice...
you can also do this at work ..

I only started and participate in this one.. but other in the area that my group as spawned have sent over 250 boxes of items..
the most requested.. as one of the barmaids son's is in Iraq.. was in Afganistan
are the HICKORY FARMS PACKAGES.. and they need to be wrapped very good... because the post office won't send perishables...if they find them..
