"To those we cherished and lost in the largest firefight since the Vietnam War we shall never forget you. You gave all and asked nothing in return, turning to meet our foes and standing bravely with your brothers without hesitation. Rest in peace for you have fought the good fight and redefined your creeds. We remember you with pride and love in our hearts for you set the example we strive to follow." www.nightstalkers.com

Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!"

#13  I hear the latest plan in Somalia is another "power share." Why would anyone think that warlords would share power? Didn't work that well between Hitler and Stalin either.

#11  Chuck, (Charles, c'mon, I thought only sissys and British princes were named that) excuse my stupidity - us Marines are not known for our edmucashon..... However, I wasn't sure if the I was a typo. Thanks for enlightening me that two Bush's have actually been Prez - holy sh*t, I had no idea. I assumed the photo op Hiryu mentions had to do with Bush 43's carrier landing. I was trying to get more info. Thanks again. My head's outta the jar so please take your foot outta your mouth.

#9  Jarhead, yes, he was reffering to Bush41. Right now the president is George 2 so George 1 must be his father. Head out of the jar.

#7  While there is little to commend Clinton for on that performance, do save a couple of rotten tomatoes for George I who committed us to a loser of an operation without being serious about it being other then a glorified photo op.

-please elaborate. I'm not sure I know what you mean. You are referring to Bush 41 right?
