My brother-in-law, a U.S. Marine who’s currently serving at Camp Fallujah, forwarded this around over the weekend. He says it’s pretty spot-on, and he thinks he knows the guy who wrote it (but no, the author is not my brother-in-law).
I saw him briefly in the Spring; we were all in town for a family member’s funeral (he’d gotten permission for leave well in advance, as the death was not unexpected). In the few minutes I had to chat with him about Iraq when his kids were not in the room, he told me that the Iraqi army recruits they are training are definitely getting better (they manage to actually hit targets with artillery, for example, something the Iraqi Army did not seem able to do at all during the invasion), but that it will take “a long time” before the new Iraqi Army is really good to go.
Very pleased to find this site. Thanks for taking the time to share this.
