Looks like a good book but aren’t you justifying what the Russians did? If they released you then you went back to the battlefield to kill Russians (as a mercenary I presume), isn’t the lesson for them to capture you and never ever let you out again (or sentence you to death)?

Thank you. I truly love Pelikan.

Wait, last week Washington DC was worse than Baghdad. FIFA is have an event in the murder capital of the world?

@redsox.com takes another in style!!!

Remember, this is the same Trump who said if we stopped testing for Covid, we would have less Covid. Why? Because we wouldn’t know.

Well, once a month I drew ammunition and deployed our tanks along the border…

The US did not nuke Iran

I served for 10 years and was deployed on the East German border and was in the first gulf war. I doubt you want 60+ year olds fighting but, when it was my time, I did.
