[W126 Coupe] IRAQ, they just keep shooting at us.

[Dick Spellman]

Here is a link of some footage my oldest son sent along tonight.  He's stationed in Iraq and sits atop an armored humvee with a 50 cal. weapon dealing with this nonsense when providing force protection.

To hear these ***** recorded on their own captured video just makes it all the more difficult to watch.

Now I understand when he calls to say he's had a good day.  1st call. He switched from Kevlar to full metal jacket even though it's 130 degrees.  2nd call another happy message, they got new doors on the humvee, the old ones were badly shot up   3rd call.. Hey Dad, really good news, got a new Humvee and decked out the floors and roofs with nice new sandbags, should keep us for a while.

How do you defend, protect and win the peace when you are up against this?

Dick
