Good News From Iraq MSM Ignores.

Posted by Taste of Liberty at 8:16 am. Filed under: General

Here’s a great personal letter from a soldier stationed in Iraq who will be returning home shortly.

Just to give an update on this deployment: things have gone wonderful for me over here. I have flown over 50 combat missions; successfully lead a platoon of 68 soldiers through a combat rotation, and best of all I got to see Dad’s installation in Hawaii. Despite the fact that I have been over here, 2005 has been a great year.

Leaving here will be a wonderful feeling; however, it is great to know that I have been a part of the future for the Iraqi people. They have an amazing culture; they are supportive, polite and respectful to all of the Americans serving here. It is truly the actions of a few that have destroyed the image of the whole. I have met many locals and they always show a smile and sense of gratitude to all of the soldiers and their sacrifices.

I don’t feel any regret for the choice that I have made and the service that I have given to this world. America is making a difference here in the Middle East, and I pray that we continue to guide and mentor the world so that they can all share the freedoms that we enjoy.
