My buddy just got back from Iraq, he's the youngest fully certified Force Recon Marine in the history of the Corps. Anyways, he just got back from living in tents out in the desert for 6 months. His mission was to search and eliminate 11 high profile threats in caves around Iraq, and apperantly his team took out 8/11 and he personally got 3 of them. I didn't specifically talk to him, my other buddy from M.C.C. did. Funny thing is he said he didn't see a single woman for 5 straight months. :eek: Anyways congrats on a successful tour, I was a little worried about ya. He was in my Marine Cadet Corps and filled in as a D.I. for about a month when he was on leave after boot. Great all around guy, can't wait to see him soon. Oorah.

Update with pictures of (name)...maybe he's a Sgt. now, forgot to ask. Anyways he sent pics back too, which I thought was cool.
