To those deployed
I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you to those deployed. My own time has come and gone, so I know a bit about how it is.

Thank you and rest assured you are not forgotten.

Merry Christmas.

PS - I don't think Haji takes Christmas off, so face outboard and watch your sixes.

May the Good Lord Protect and Keep you all and may He make Haji's powder wet and his charges go off early (hopefully while the little bastards are still placing them).

He knows only The Cause.

Still want to quit?

That's a great little prayer right there.

Merry Christmas to our Military and their families, keep safe.

Thanks Gents
I Appreciate the support Gentlemen!
I was able to meet Gen Schoomaker yesterday. He came to see us for Christmas. Seemed to be a very intelligent and humble leader. I will post a pic and short video clip of him later, my connection is very slow. My apologies.
