As many of you may or may not know, I am a Marine and I am leaving for Iraq again soon. This will probably be the last chance that I have to get on here before I leave so I thought now would be an appropriate time to post up my address in case any of you want to send me any mail or packages or a bike. ;)

LCPL LEVINE J.B.
3/5 LIMA CO. HQT PLT
UNIT 40395
FPO AP 96426-0395

I will be able to get mail at this address until I get back. I look forward to hearing from all you guys and gals. Have a nice 7 months.
Keep the shiny side up.

Shit...one by one this board will all be deployed it seems.:nono:

In the mean time man, stay low and stay safe. As I told Dzur, if you run into a PFC Nagle (who's probably doing recon)...punch him in the arm and tell him it's from me...then laugh your ass off.

Yeah...it's pretty arrogant to stand on an aircraft carrier and declare "mission accomplished" while good people who are giving their all for your bullshit are dying. Man...I am so voting this year.

And hey...I got to make my 3000th post a political one. The government can suck on that too.

as much as im against it, i'd rather see closure of some sort rather than another gull war in 2012

Hey Jon, stay safe over there. I have a lot of respect for what you're doing! I hope you get a chance to hop on the board from time to time to check in.

His plan is to pull all of us out ASAP. What that means is that the country will once again have no security, it will fall to civil war, another dictator will take over, and they will be just as bad off if not worse than before. The next time we would go in there (there would be a next time) we would never be able to get the people to trust us. The people trusting us now is helping more than you will ever know. It was hard enough to get them to trust us this time. If we leave again they will have nothing but hatred for us. Not to mention, if we pull out now, all of my friends that are not coming home will be for nothing.

Just my .02

Man...why do we even care what happens over there? So we leave, there'a power vacuum, and a mad dash for leadership. Who cares? I hate to sound insensitive, but this is NOT our problem. They do not pose a significant threat to us as a nation and their political system is none of our business. If your government doesn't work, it's up to you to do something about...not some people half way around the world. I'm sick of seeing service men and women racking up in the body count while Bush is declaring victory and yet everyday the story's the same. I'd like to see this through to the end, but I honestly don't see an end. We didn't get out of Vietnam too clean, either.

I saw today that Kerry says "Troops out in 4yrs"
What a bunch of crap. Troops should be gone already.

I wish the US would stop trying to be the world's parental figure.
