#2 I'd like to second Evert's remark. Thanks KB and all your fellow troops.

#3 K.B. - Did we rock or what? I also spent 9 months over there, and it is very humbling to have your face and hands kissed by joyous Free Iraqis. I also would do it again, in a heart-beat.

#4 May God continue to bless our men and women in the military who "get it" and who serve bravely and proudly whether they get it or not.
I am so proud of them and grateful for their service, especially in the Iraq theatre, more than I can say.
Outstanding post, Mike! Thank you so much.

Good to see you back in the 'Burg, Sarge. Come visit more often, and thanks again for your service.

#6 Oh, great. Camel spiders. In the southern end of Iraq. That's where my son is now (Umm Qasr), guess I'll be hearing from him about all those nifty critters once the weather heats up.

Bodyguard: yes, you guys sure did rock. God bless you, and thanks.

#7 For the record I have read a report in "Paris-Match" (remember that magazine whose reporter was with the terrorists who tried to down a cargo plane over Irak) about the war wounded. people who would never walk again or worse and they too were telling it was worth their sacrifice and that they would do it gain. And no the reporter didn't write sneering comments. Quite the opposite: general tone was respectful and admirative.

In the same issue there was an editorial attacking the remainder of the French press for showing so much compassion to Saddam and so little to his victims.

#8 Thanks for a great post! Interestingly enough, only a couple of people on the Wall Street Journal editorial page complained. There are many, many responses after that, all friendly to, and appreciative of, the President. As it should be!

The beef over the WMD is just another example of the Dems trying and failing to smear George Bush. The truth will come out in the end regarding the WMD. In the meantime, I bet all the favorable responses that came in supporting the President just made the libs cringe. I like thinking about that.

#9 Thanks guys for finishing the job we started over a decade ago. Sorry you got the duty for something we could have handled back then.
