Iraq has no shortage of soldiers, however I hear Afghanistan is getting a lot more troops because I guess the Taliban are pushing back hard.

To be honest it's your own choice been over there and serving a corrupt government and system, you chose to be over their fighting and killing and you chose to be away from your family. No one else to blame but yourself dude, get out of the army and start working on problem solving rather then killing. If all the soldiers of the world dropped their guns and quit the army and focused on problem solving man the world would be a hell of alot better...

What is your MOS? What FOB are you at?
People don't buy into this guy. Any soldier knows that when your over seas, christmas is just another day and your mind is focused elsewhere. I spent 2 CONSECUTIVE CHRISTMASES in baquba Iraq and I didn't miss it one bit. ITS NOT AS BAD AS YOU THINK! Sure the war sucks but there are ALOT of American civilians over in iraq that make life 100000 times easier. THEY COOK BIG DINNERS AND HAND OuT PRESENTS. The first year I was there I even got a photo of santa holding my M249 Machine Gun.
I would label this person a troll if anything. Give me some proof you are a soldier, and not just a anti war fanatic that is willing to make up any lie they can to levey support.
PALEASE! Oh and by the way the LAST thing even the most worthless of soldiers would ASK for it Pitty from the American people. wow wtf

Give me proof that YOU'RE a soldier. My friend's father works at Crane (NWSC) Crane, Indiana. Its as easy as pie for me to validate your service with the United States military. Tell me what branch, the year you started and your CO's name and year that you began and I will see if you actually are what you say that you are. Just so you know, if you give me any B.S. information, I will hang you out to dry here on ATS to the point where you will NEVER want to post here again.
Just shut up now female dog (what's that called?) - do not even begin to question this mans service.

This D-Bag needs to let it go. Real Vet's know whats going on. The best food I ever had was during the holidays, especially Thanksgiving. Our Master Chief was the best damn cook i ever knew and his motto was that the last person in line would never get less then the first person.
It's a ride, for sure, but every one of us were there because we wanted to be!
This OP is a disgrace and a troll.

Seems to me like you are the one trolling here sir. Its not my fault that you get butt-hurt over a simple thread as this one. maybe you would like to take some of my missions so I can get some down time. Anyways keep doing what you think is right and have a happy new year
