Question For You Military Types
« on: May 05, 2011, 01:23:05 PM »
What is your understanding of how long our men and women will be in Iraq, Afghanistan etc.?  Asking because my brother in law just got the word he'll be headed back to Baghdad in July for a year.  It seems that everything I've been reading and hearing the past few months has been about getting our people home and Iraq pretty much saying it's time for that to happen.

Are we going to leave a smaller contingent of personnel over there and if so, wouldn't that make them more vulnerable?  I mean, either we're (I hate to say "we" since I haven't done squat) all in or not IMO. 

Thoughts?

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

A veteran is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'The United States of America ' for an amount of 'up to and including my life.' That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.'

You meet a man on the Oregon Trail. He tells you his name is Terry. You laugh and tell him: "That's a girl's name!" Terry shoots you. You have died of dissin' Terry.
