Very interesting read, following each soldier Before, During, and After.

You read some of the other boards, some filled with young people looking to enlist. So often the board is filled with kids asking if they will be able to "Kick in the doors" so to speak, most wanting to make sure they will have the chance, all of them so eager for deployment. I wish they all would take the time to read features like the one you posted, reality can be a hard slap in the face.

Thanks for posting this.

One of the British Soldiers was wearing a bandana with the US Soldier's Creed on it. Cool.

Wow! The pictures alone say it all. Harrowing.

Yeah i saw that as well goarmy, although i thought it was the soldier medics creed? i could be mistaken.
