#2 What a cluster.....

Jeez Louise, no wonder our young people in the military are so frustrated.

Our family's Marine Sergeant told us that the waiting for mission approvals were starting to get 'f'n nuts' when he opted out after three 'tours'. He said that they did a lot of 'under the radar' small rescue and 'criminal removal' ops in western Anbar without waiting for anyone higher than the folks around them for approval. Probably not good for everyone's career, but stuff needed to get done.

#4 Just do it. Screw the traitor in the WH. Work up the op and do it in the black.
