The End of Combat Operations in Iraq

So, this morning I was on FoxNews discussing what I wanted hear the President say in his speech tonight. Like I said this morning, I really wanted to hear him discuss the surge, the success it achieved in Iraq and what it means for Afghanistan. I have to admit, he gave me more than I [...]

Enough Already With the Wiki-Freaks

So, I’ve just about had it with this whole WikiLeaks thing. Now, they’re threatening to release some CIA document….I mean seriously, where is Jason Bourne when you need him? Although maybe we don’t need him. The Commandant of the Marine Corps just said that keeping 202,000 Marines constructively occupied is not an easy task. Well, I’d [...]

To Go Beyond

  “Kastner has been missing for 2 months, they just found his body in yellowstone, self-inflicted gunshot…” Last night I received the above as a text message from James Thomas, “Rage 2 Actual.” Sergeant Peter Kastner was one of his squad leaders. At the moment, I’m still speechless. However, there are a few things I have to say [...]

In my daily searches of YouTube for good war vids, I came across this. I quickly decided whoever said the Americans were the only ones motivated for the War on Terror never met a British Paratrooper. Check it out, pure motivation (click the link for the video): A Message for Terry Taliban Watch out Terry we’re hunting you down, There’s [...]

Executive Denial

Global War on Terror…haven’t heard that term in a few years. Sounds like Islamic extremism is the next phrase to be lopped alongside the aforementioned. Why? Because America still hasn’t figured out who, or what, it is fighting.   So let me break it down for you. America is fighting a very capable and adept foe. [...]

The Essence of Our Story

Two great reviews of our story that really capture what it’s all about. Below are some highlights, click through for the full reviews. Semper Fi gentlemen!  ”Rage Company, even with its unadorned, non-literary style, grabbed me from the start. It is not a story about rage, some kind of darkly macho Sgt. Rock tale, as it presents, [...]

The Marine On The Cover

We’ve all seen the powerful photo. A bright sun rising against the clear blue sky. Alone, a Marine stands silhouetted by the light. Across his back is a medium machine gun, a symbol of his strength. Hanging on his back are the remnants of a worn American flag. He is a patriot. His face is [...]

A General Betrayed, AWOL Afghans, And A Muslim Soldier

Today’s headlines aren’t all that great for the home side in the War on Terror. I have to say, the most prominent and the first of the headlines is the most worrisome. Apparently, General McChrystal isn’t all that pleased with his support from the executive branch. Not to mention the politiking of the man who should [...]

Chuck Norris, “Osama Hunting 101″

I have to admit, I laughed when I read this story about Gary Faulkner, an American from Colorado, arrested in Pakistan while hunting for Osama. Unfortunately Gary did not pass the first test of Chuck Norris’ “Osama Hunting 101.” The 40 inch sword and pistol were a dead give-away. All you need is the roundhouse [...]

Editing With A Purpose?

Check this out: Reuters admittedly edited a photo showing an activist on board the Mavi Marmara with a knife in his hand, standing over a stabbed Israeli commando. Now why would they do that???? Fair and balanced? I dare say not. I’d imagine the guy with the knife wasn’t alive much longer. You want the real [...]
