The story comes from Warrior Lodge is a translation of a report by a member the French military who served in Afghanistan with our troops. It is worth the time to read!

Chief 62 Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 Good article. We have the greatest soldiers in the world. I just wish the politicians would let our generals do what needs to be done so they all could come home. God Bless America!

Medico Posted January 26, 2015 Report Share Posted January 26, 2015 I was not surprised by this article. My godson (nephew) served in Iraq and Afghanistan and we have heard many of these same stories from him. I would like to offer a hearty "Thank you" to all our courageous men and women in uniform.
