Michele, you said in one word what would have taken me a few well thought out sentences to say.

Without further ado; Thanks John, those photos really show that we are not all warmongers and that we are more than just a superpower. The vast majority of us care very much about life, and the lives of others. Thank you for showing us what our soldiers really are.

Individuals and small groups can always be wonderful.

These pics were emailed to me a few weeks ago with a caption about how many of us take sleep for granted (AC, bed, etc)...

These pics are from Reuters and AFP...

So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

Judging by the uniform, the boots, and the weapon, the first one looks like an Israeli...

Yeah, it's pretty miserable, but you kinda just hunker down and put your mind somewhere else.

Alerts were always sucky, 'cause we'd be there at all hours with no place to crash.

Ditto.

You have to admit. Without hesitation.

That one word also describes our Michele quite well.

Poignant indeed.

Looks pretty comfy in those holes to me!

The last photo is of Brit Royal Engineers. We Brit soldiers can sleep anywhere!!

Those are really touching pictures. This is a presentation done by Press-a-Print to say thanks to everyone serving in the military. the first time I saw it I got a huge lump in my throat.

I hate to agree with you but yes:

Picture one shows a member of the IDF (Israeli Defense Force) guarding a checkpoint near the Gaza strip.

Thot so. There's no credit on the photo - any idea who took it?
