Five months of workup training, eh? Not as bad as I've heard of some U.S. units getting. We've been training since September, deploying to Kandahar in August. The fall was fairly low key, but it should pick up quite a bit in January. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

That's a bit over the top. The world is the battlefield now, so fighting terrorists in another country does not effect them coming into our country. It's already been shown that our borders are still easy to cross, the war in Iraq wouldn't deter a terrorist from coming here and attacking a civilian target. |

So extraordinarily incorrect my eyeballs may pop. The NATO ISAF force is there at the request of the Karzai government. The role of ISAF (international security assistance force) is to stabilize the nation and provide security while the Afghan government rebuilds their social and political infrastructure. A parliament has already been assembled, and a military and police force are being trained. The military training is going well; the police not so much. The Afghan National Army are conducting offensive operations sometimes without ISAF forces in tow now, and the are included in nearly every ISAF mission. Concurrently, NATO provincial reconstruction teams are delivering aid, rebuilding infrastructure, providing medical outreach, and working with the locals at the village level to determine how NATO can help the individual people. 40 nations are involved in the coalition, including 12 that are not NATO members. It's not some unilateral operation by the United States. The initial invasion was reprisal for Taliban collaboration with Al Qaeda and its networks, as well as Osama Bin Laden. Since then the mission has evolved to help rebuild one of *the* most shattered nations in the world. Maybe you don't feel like thanking the troops there, but then you already had running clean water, electricity, an education, and human and civil rights. Those people living there are much happier to give thanks to NATO members for what's being done. Terrorist organizations will recruit regardless of what's going on. There are enough disenfranchised young male Muslims to provide a steady stream of recruits into the Madrassas (radical religious schools). These kids are the ones who end up being sent into fights they can't win, or blowing themselves up in a marketplace. We're there to go after the bastards leading this, and to try to improve the conditions that cause that desperation in the first place. Try doing a bit of research before you spout off that forty nations are doing something for no reason. You won't make quite a fool of yourself. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America.

I was done, but whatever. I didn't say THEY weren't serving their country. I said the MILITARY isn't serving the country. There is a difference, and you know it. I also didn't criticize people going, nor do I care when my "rights are violated". I will let the government tap my phones, search me at airports, hell they can check my house if they want. I say this because, I know I'm not doing anything wrong. So infringe my rights, because I'd rather deal with that than pick up the paper and hear about people dying. My post came out wrong, I was saying the government will send you soldiers to another country that we shouldn't be fighting in.

The military doesn't just exist to defend the country (or the Constitution depending on how specific you want to get), but to serve national interests. Those national interests are the results of government policy and the geopolitical dynamic. It's simplistic and incorrect to try to argue against Iraq simply by saying that it isn't doing anything to defend territorial America. That's not to say I personally support the war in Iraq - I don't - but the government at the time felt it was in the national interest to invade; that at some point was there was a tangible future benefit for the U.S. if it got involved in Iraq. Seems that they muffed that something awful, but that doesn't change the fact that the Iraq war was passed 296-133 in the house, and 77-23 in the senate. The military and the soldiers faithfully executed their duty according to the legislative will of the government. That's how a constitutional republic works. The military does not exist to make national decisions, it is merely among the executors thereof when the national interest requires that force be used. You don't join the military to defend your country, you join to serve it. There's an important difference. Don't like it? Tough cookies.

we in the military, who make up the military are the military, so we are one and the same. As for the war not serving any purpose and protecting our country, none of you have absolutely any idea. In ten years or so we'll see. As for now, while it is still ongoing, it would be naive to come out and say anything against the war at this time. As for volunteering to go, I would have volunteered given the option, but my name was on a list. and that list is being told you are going, it matters not how we feel about that.

2 Questions Kristofer, are you allowed to get your own addons for your weapon such as sights, lights, etc? and unrelated: Will you or your unit need/want anything that they don't issue you? Silly string was one of those things that was pretty popular for a while. I'd like to try getting some donations for you to make it a bit more comfortable overseas. If you can keep contact with us, I'll try to send your unit some goodies a little while after you get there (no freebies while you're still able to buy the stuff yourself back here). I've done it before back in high school and it seemed to have helped some soldiers there. -------------

Yeah, good question to ask- and one he should be asking himself. Personally I'm in the market for a backup ironsight in case my optics foul up. ------------- "Abortion is not "choice" in America. It is forced and the democrats are behind it, with the goal of eugenics at its foundation." -FreeEnterprise, 21 April 2011. Yup, he actually said that. |

| i have no idea about add ons. beats me. until this weekend i wasnt planning on anything of the sort, but they took away my M203 and i almost cried...(sarcasm) but i seriously am wicked bummed about losing the 203. once i figure out those whole just an M16A4 i'll post a real answer, but that wont be until january haha when i have drill again. as for sending things, i appreciate the offer but i think for the most part we'll all be ok. they are much better with equipment than they used to be. everything we need is supplied. should we need something i'll be sure to post it, and thanks again. |

I really dont know why people want to go to Iraq. Glad you want to, though. Good luck, and hope you come back safe. Edit: 1. Its pretty sad Brihard defended the war in Iraq and Americas current standpoint on the war when he is Canadian. 2. Those of you that claim that soldiers aren't supporting this country disgust me. I do not aggree with this war, and believe we must build up Iraq and GTFO, but never will say that those soldiers didn't support this country. 3. Completely unrelated, but are you allowed to install aftermarket stocks once deployed? -------------
