Hardtack and Havoc

A private of the 1st Texas Volunteer Infantry Civil War Reenactor with a day job in Uncle Sugar's Navy trapped in the unholy land of New England...I wish I was still in Iraq.

So There We Were...

So there we were, whizzing through a small Iraqi town and I see a bunch of indigenous females in traditional muslim garb huddled around each other in the market. So I say "Hey look...Nuns!" and our gunner spewed Gatorade out his nose. He was a might irritated with me the rest of the trip.

Well, from the sounds of it, they should be grateful. Seems like you keep things pretty interesting for 'em.

BE A MAN AND LEAVE THIS POST INTACT.



JESUS CHRIST HAS REMOVED HIS BLESSING FROM AMERICA BECAUSE OF YOU AMERINAZIS. YOU CAN’T MURDER PEOPLE TO STEAL THEIR OIL, THEN LIE ABOUT IT! DON’T YOU THINK YOU’RE GOING TO HELL FOR THAT?

Wow, my very second nut ball commenter...cool! Obviously, this commenter has never been to Iraq. I suspect he has never been surrounded by Iraqi's thanking him for being in Iraq and helping them. I suspect he really hasn't gotten a very good understanding of his scriptures. If I were to go to hell it certainly would not be for my service in Iraq. In fact, I will be proud of that service when I stand before the Lord for judgement from what is written in the book of life. Obviously he doesn't know where Iraqs oil goes. One point I will concede to him though...well not concede but discuss. I often wonder if the Lord's blessing is still upon America. If it isn't it certainly isn't because of the good work we are doing in Iraq, it would be because our government has turned away from the principles it was founded upon and our people allow the government of the people, by the people and for the people to run roughshod over the principles upon which it was formed. In conclusion, my dear commenter, I believe you should call upon the Lord's guidance through prayer and meditation as you appear to be lost.

I'm not surprised your gunner was miffed at you. I can speak from experience that Gatorade is some of the worst liquid to snort out of ones nose. It feels as if the enirety of your nasal and sinus cavities have been lit on fire. Not fun, but I still would have laughed.

Thank you for your service, and stay safe.
