Just now tuning into the landmark reenlistment happening in Iraq with American servicemen this past Fourth of July. Better late than never. From Bob Krumm who was there:
"1,215 Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines raised their right hands and committed to a combined 5,500 years of additional service during the largest reenlistment ceremony in the history of the American military. Beneath a large American flag which dwarfed even the enormous chandelier that Saddam Hussein had built for the Al Faw Palace, members of all services, representing all 50 states took the oath administered by Gen. David Petraeus, Commander of Multi-National Forces Iraq."
Read Bob's full post. It's never too late to give thanks to the brave men and women who serve and defend our country. God bless them all.
