This is what makes me frustrated about this so called war. This guy probably didn't even know what hit him. We don't often hear a story like "Sgt. Joe was able to take out 10 enemy fighters before taking a bullet himself", because there are no enemy fighters in this war that we are allowed to fight and kill and win. (unless they fire on one of our boys first and other politicly correct "rules of engagement") This war is an exercise in tying our hands and running around exposing ourselves and getting our ass blown up on occation, while we play cop. Those kids over there weren't trained to be cops. They were trained to kill "the enemy" without getting killed first, or at least I hope that is their training.
