Just a big ol' lapdog - pic
awwww....


Just a big ol' lapdog: Outpost mascot Ranger loves all the GIs in 1st Platoon, Charlie Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Infantry Regiment, 5th Styker Brigade, but he's especially fond of Sgt. Sean Henry. With Henry are Spc. Jason Purdy (left) and Spc. Jeffrey Ortiz, who had accompanied him on a foot patrol in Afghanistan's Kandahar province.

7. yeah, I don't think that most troops are out there wanting to kill people either.....
People are people. People want to live, love, work, have fun, take a partner, mebbe have kids, keep a dog/cat......we're all P-r-e-t-t-y much the same

Therefore, "whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers (sisters), that you do unto me." seems QUITE appropos.

3. My first thought as well.
Previous stories have indicted it is VERY difficult...

If left behind, there is very little hope for a good life.
