The Pride of Princeton
This email from an army commander to the family of his troops is a must-read -- it exemplifies not only the quality of the men leading our troops, but the quality of our American troops.
When Hugh Hewitt read it on his radio program yesterday, the name of the commander sounded like an acquaintance from college -- I had a freshman year roomate in ROTC, and thus knew some of the other ROTC participants. Sure enough, it seems that Battalion Commander Chris Cavoli is, in fact, Princeton '87. I remember him as a strong, wiry, dark-haired, no-nonsense type of guy who was, even at the time, clearly destined for a career in the US Army. I am proud to have known him, proud to share an alma mater with him.
Please say a prayer for Commander Chris Cavoli and for all the men and women serving so valiantly in the cause of freedom.

eddy---always on topic.
This email is typical of the stuff we constantly hear of only through blogs and sites run by people who are concerned with the reality of the situation. Libs, like the doufas above, choose to ignore, spin, question and suspect such evidence of the quality, character and heart of our military personnel, and the successes they accumulate. That's OK. While they bleat and whinney like dumb animals, others are doing the heavy lifting, and people on the right consistently show support.
editor has never agreed with anything Carol's ever posted, so why does dittohead keep reading? Must be because he's declared his moral and intellectual superiority over all use right wing idiots!
As usual, Ann nails it too. The sheeple run off the cliff chasing their power.
From the email:
"Most of all, we have separated the enemy from the people."
That's great news.
It beats having to leaflet an area (such as, say, Southern Lebanon) with a message of "turn out the combatants among you, or you will die horribly by their side."
The distances covered when eddy-boy jumps to conclusions would make an Olympic pole vaulter proud.
