Linc Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Information will be released once the Army's notification process has been completed. Until then, just sit tight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XvX Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 I saw this in the newspaper. As soon as I saw it, I checked back here. Makes me wonder why we are in Iraq. Oh, and something to think about. Take the first letters of the name Operation Iraqi Liberation, the name of the current mission in Iraq.

wild_blue Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 This is disturbing,I'm sure by now everyone has heard about the crash of a blackwater USA chopper and the five men who were killed in it,today on the news it was reported that 4 of those men were shot execution style in the back of the head.The pilot of that chopper was an ex-army pilot. I don't know about everyone else but I wish those damn insurgents would literally drop dead!!!!! May god protect and bless our troops!!!

Linc Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Blackwater USA has a preference for ex-military pilots. 3500 hours, special operations experience preferred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
