“I’m not going to Iraq not being able to wear any of my gear, not carry a weapon,” he said. “I become a liability to everybody around me because if they get mortared, they’re going to have to look out for me because obviously, I can’t run. I can’t look out for myself. Now I’ve got soldiers worrying about my welfare, instead of their own.”

A friend of ours just got sent back to Iraq within a year of having sharpnel in his back and just finished physical therapy. :sad

As long as they're breathing they get sent back. :(

I can only hope that someday karma or something catches up with these criminals that sent us into this folly.
