I will be MOST interested to read what some readers of your blog have to say on this. Most interested.

Tad's attempt at baiting comes off as rather lame, but I'll ignore that...

Not sure why anyone would find Aaron's account anything other than open, honest, and realistic. Particulary interesting was his take on Afghanistsan over Iraq. Pretty much what those of us who are really awake have saying all along.

So, exactly what were you hoping for, Tad?

Things I hope for:

1. Good triumphs
2. Only really bad people get hurt
3. Good health and happiness increases
4. People get smarter and smarter

On the battle field:

1. Fire superiority
2. No KIAs or serious WIAs amoung our folks
3. Good wx
4. Excellent, and timely, intell
5. Smackin' down the enemy...very, very often

At home:

1. More understanding of Americans as to what those young people who wear uniforms really do.
2. Less politicians and more statesmen/women that do not just "bring home the bacon".

Yikes, I guess my list is long.

I wasn't "baiting" anyone. Say what what you want to say. I, you, we, will be judged by each other as to what we do and what we support.
