Re: Total respect for women in Combat (cc welcomed)

Just a short civics lesson: it's political leaders who decide whether or not to wage war in Afghanistan or anywhere else, not paratrooper. I'm also opposed to (the continuation) of this war, but that does not detract one iota from my admiration for the courage, valor and professionalism of those who, like paratrooper, have decided to make the military a career choice. I agree with those who've said they're glad he's here, posts pictures and participates in discussions about photography.

You title your post "respect for women in combat" and then complain that people take that statement politically???

Got news for you paratrooper, you are NOT defending yourself NOR your men NOR your country, you are attacking and killing poor people in a foreign land that did nothing to you nor yours.

But for someone who "just follows orders and executes them" I guess using your brain is not part of the job description, which is a shame since your command of the English language makes you an exception in the military crowd.
