My dad served two terms in Vietnam, my brother-in-law is currently in the Army is is my brother who has already done six tours in his 15 years in the Army. Yeah maybe it gets overused but it is true, these guys and gals are our TRUE heroes and warriors.

These guys who served in WWI and WWII were studs. I hope we never ever forget what all they did for the US and the world.

amen to that, what those guys went through and the conditions they dealt with were and are the definition of true heroism and should NEVER be forgotten or taken for granted.

No idea man, he was a truck mechanic before he joined the Marines and that's his MOS so I'm assuming it'll be to another school to continue training there. It should be easy for him because he's been working on trucks for over a couple years now.

He's gotta get out of bootcamp first though, and that's not easy. They're putting him through the paces daily and I've seen the boot camp "schedule" and it's definitely not easy.

The United States has 36,000 Soldiers, Marines, Sailors and Airmen stationed in Japan along with their families. I ask that you remember and pray for their safety tonight. Warpath member "hagams" is a member of the USMC stationed at Okinawa... Godspeed.

Question: What's our footprint in Iraq? I still hear we're fighting two wars. Well, we drew down combat ops about a year ago, right?

So how much of presence do we still have there and how much is it costing the American taxpayer.
