My buds over at Blackfive.net posted a great blog entry that you really will want to read. It is from an Oregon NG officer serving as an ETT. Take some time, and read the entire article all the way to the end. Check it out at http://www.blackfive.net/main/2008/09/a-letter-from-a.html

As my buds over at Blackfive.net say, any day with Dead Tangos is a good day. Well here is a video of dead tangos, but thank God the dog lived. I am sure that dog did nothing wrong and if nothing else, this just goes to show how well our military does their job at [...]

**Bouhammer’s Note- This blog entry was originally published on another blog by my good friend, LTC Paul Fanning. LTC Fanning is the Public Affairs Officer for Task Force Phoenix in Afghanistan.

Last weekend there were several people from DOD’s and the Army’s PAO office. In fact, the Army accessions command even sponsored a very nice catered lunch for many of us in attendance that were or are in the Army.

A blog originally created by a 22-year retired First Sergeant of the Army. This blog started out as a way to write about military related issues. It turned into a way for Bouhammer to document his 16 month tour as an ETT leader in Afghanistan for family and friends. It is now one of the leading and award-winning blogs written exclusively on operations in Afghanistan and other military related topics. In addition to Bouhammer, another writer is The Dude who is a National Guard Officer currently serving as a civilian contractor in the country of Kuwait. Thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy what you see. If you care about what is happening in the land where the attacks of 9/11 were planned and if you care about our military, this is the blog for you. Tell your family, tell your friends, and even tell people you don't like.
