Message from Iraq

[Puddles]

My sister, an NYPD detective sent this to me...


The proud warriors of Baker Company wanted to do something to pay tribute To our fallen comrades. So since we are part of the only Marine Infantry Battalion left in Iraq the one way that we could think of doing that is By taking a picture of Baker Company saying the way we feel. It would be awesome if you could find a way to share this with our fellow countrymen. I was wondering if there was any way to get this into your papers to let the world know that "WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN" and are proud to serve our country."

Let's not ever forget, nor forget those still in Iraq fighting for OUR freedom.

I wish that all the soooo patroitic people that felt a duty for their country, and flew their American flags for all of 3 fucking weeks after 9-11 would see this. How easily they forget that there are still brave men and women out there fighting to hopefully make sure another 9-11 wont happen. These people that get in their SUV of choice and drive to the gas station, that always has gas, to take the kids to soccer practice, that the field is green and not bullet/ landmine riddled, while chating on their cell phone about what an asshole George Bush is and how fucked up Congress and this country is...
Hey it's real simple.. You dont like it GET THE FUCK OUT . I dont agree with everything the Pres. and Congress has done. But, by God I thank the people who have sacrificed their lifes so I could type this one fucking thread without fear of prosecution or beating or death. To all our soldiers, my prayers and thoughts, and thanks!
