Support our Troops in any Way You Can -- They are our Finest!!

Sgt. Maj. Michael L. Scarbrough, battalion sergeant major, hands out a toy to an Iraqi girl near Mudiq, Iraq Aug. 11. Scarbrough and other members of Jump Platoon, Headquarters and Service Company, 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment were on a mission to build good will by meeting Iraqi locals. On their way to there, the unit encountered enemy fire from a nearby cemetery. Iraqi Army soldiers were in the area within minutes to assess the insurgent activity. No Coalition Forces were hurt. After the incident the members went on to meeting local Iraqis. Scarbrough is from Detroit, Michigan -- Mediawingnuts' home town -- He is currently serving a seven-month deployment in the Habbaniyah area under Regimental Combat Team 5.

I hope that some of you will visit Sage's website/blog. He mixes humor and the realities of war and the world quite well.
