The young man was told to let his hair grow and quit shaving in preparation for deployment to the sandbox. Their departure of US territory coincided conveniently with the initiation of conflict in Mosul. People who choose to brew up their own storms bitch loudest about the rain.

I've always maintained the USA needs to maintain a much larger Special Ops force than it does... They also need to maintain a lot larger force of armed drones world wide... May the Good Lord watch over your' friends son and ALL of our troops serving in harms way.... and may the number of casualties among ISIS's ranks be huge...

More than enough have been sacrificed for no reason or achievement. There are simpler ways to address the problem and they are far more effective. I am..........disturbed.

Every man, woman, child, dog, cat, goat, camel, and cockroach in that godforsaken dung heap is not worth one drop of American blood.
