So who is going to be the General or other person held accountable for the waste of millions, if not billions, of dollars for the outfitting of our Army in ACU uniforms and gear? I want to know why the Army did all these supposed tests that proved the current UCP (uniformed camouflaged pattern) ACU [...]

Most of the Government employees were off for several days last week while the Nation’s capitol was getting nailed by snow. Well there were some who still showed up to work every day and showed up on time. They didn’t even think of calling in for the weather.
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.
