That was just.....priceless.
I'm still laughing. Now I've got a taste for one of my special spiced chai smoothies. DAMMIT!!!!!
Got to love the Duffel Blog.
Bagram is an alternate universe. I'll always be appreciative of the work done by our dedicated support personnel and all Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines, but I will never understand why certain people feel the need to embellish their service and go out of their way to have a "HEY LOOK AT ME!" moment.
Whether you spent your deployment on Bagram supporting warfighters or running night raids on a regular basis, you did what you did for our country and those around you; be proud of it.
“When a warrior fights not for himself, but for his brothers, when his most passionately sought goal is neither glory nor his own life's preservation, but to spend his substance for them, his comrades, not to abandon them, not to prove unworthy of them, then his heart truly has achieved contempt for death, and with that he transcends himself and his actions touch the sublime. That is why the true warrior cannot speak of battle save to his brothers who have been there with him. The truth is too holy, too sacred, for words." - Steven Pressfield, Gates of Fire

Good post RetPara.
For that matter tell anyone over at WR how hard you have had it. Stupid bitch.

I have heard so much about it now, and my inner (racing) kitty is curious to see it. I, too, have been accused of having an amazing head of hair, and hairdressers love getting their fingers in it.

I don't give a fuck. She should be mad at herself.
Boo hoo hoo. A PAO was taken advantage of by the media? Wow, that's like Nickelback being butthurt when Justin Bieber calls their music "shit."there's no honor among thieves or journalists. All of Ms. Johnson's posturing and whining caught up to her and now she wants to backtrack, defend, deny, and play the victim card.
She's an officer, a leader, and should acts as such. I'm sorry that defending her country wasn't the same as sitting in the sorority house, but them's the breaks. She brought this on herself and now she's offended and hurt?
She can do unmentionable things to herself with a pizza cutter. The sad reality is that people will buy her story and keep princess on a pedestal.
"I'm sick and it is kind of like PTSD, but not exactly PTSD..."
(Most of the non-military world) ZOMG! She has PTSD!!!!!
Keep your piehole shut, Ms. Johnson. I hope sales of your book tank.
Warm regards from the Bagram Green Beans and XOXOXO,
me
Dude, you don't even know.. Bagram was fucking crazy man
I didn't know where the fucking PX was, or the chow hall, so MRE's it was
Only got to stay there for about 3 days before doing a RIP for bros
Fast forward some months of daily patrolling and followons
Don't even get a helo ride back, gotta fuckin drive for 2 days
Get back, first thing that happens is we get our shit jumped by some eightydouche fucker WHY UR SLEEVES ROLLED UP UR NOT SF no actually we're cooler, they didn't even have vehicles
Things start getting scary, we get a week of guard, PX that's cleaned out by the likes of that cunt, and a chow hall we still couldn't fucking find with a goddamn map. MRE's again.
