#1 Really wishing that I knew the original poster of this story, so I could give credit.... but, I don't.

Anyway, it went something like this.... an Apache helicopter pilot called her boyfriend, another Apache driver, in tears. Seemed, she had just killed three terrorists. In his best voice of comforting consolation, he's telling her, "It's okay." She responds with, "No it's not. There were four of 'em and one got away!"

They got away, probably. Loaded down as our troops are, with all that body armor, weapons, and assorted other items, they can't run very fast in that slippery brown stuff terrorized Al-Qaeda leave behind.

The Navy trains dolphins to hunt mines and swimmers. Maybe the Army could train dung beetles to follow the terrs back to their lairs.
