Military Mercenary Potpourri

Was away from email and the internet for roughly two days, so it was nice to come back and find this piece making the blogosphere rounds. Got a ton of email in response, thousand pardons if I didn’t reply, was just too overwhelmed to get everyone.

Wanted to link a few military related items before I kicked off the weekend, starting Chris Muir’s most excellent response to the WaPo’s resident douchebag. (And if you’ve never heard me call anyone a douchebag before, well….I’ve never been called a “mercenary” before. So there.)

Second is Mary Katharine Ham’s phenomenal tribute to KIA Army Captain Travis Patriquin. I’m linking this even though, despite her position on undocumented laborers, she used an unpaid intern to do her dirty work. Probably to dodge the IRS.

Last but not least is Michael Yon’s latest dispatch, titled The Hands of God, is up. Read it. Now.

This weekend is the holiest of holidays in my calendar, Super Bowl Sunday, so I’ll be out till Monday. Have deep, deep roots in Chicago, so go Bears!

  2. Actually, dear sir, I am paid to do this stuff. People around here have it in their mind that I do a good job. Someday they’ll realize the truth… hahaha.

    Thanks for the link!
