off my soapbox
Now that I'm done with my rant. FID is so much damn fun! Especially when DA is involved after their training cycle. When we do operations with our Iraqi counterparts it's the best time ever. They're all smiles, bouncing around, singing and dancing. Their motivation is infectious. We'll hop on the birds to go do a hit and they are fired up. It's everything I can muster to keep up with them to the door. They will breach the door and have a typical Iraqi house cleared in under 20 seconds. I don't think I'll ever be able to top my time here with this Iraqi unit. They love training and they love fighting.
