Guy,
Whose replies? SECDEF's?
From watching the story on the news, the young man from the NG that was complaining hasn't even been to Iraq yet. The unit is apparently in Kuwait preparing to go. The Marines in the article, on the other hand, are in the contested area around Fallujah.
So, we have one that hasn't been and is complaining about something they haven't seen yet and another that has been there and done that and says he's good to go.
I am simply amazed.
