Well….dead enemy.

Like Joe Darby (of Abu Ghraib fame), an anonymous soldier took 18 sensitive photos and leaked them to the press. Continue reading

Targeted Assassinations…My, How Quiet The Liberals Are

Obama trashes Catholicism, bows to Islam [Reader Post]

Combat Waste

Howdy, everyone. Sorry I haven’t kept in touch as often as I wanted to. With the holidays here, we’ve been VERY busy getting troops home for leave.
