in the Marines are are stationed in Afghanistan. His take on SSGT. Bale is that he ought to be turned over to the Afghans and let him hang. He has put them all at risk. I was shocked when he said it because it was the last thing I thought I would hear but he now has skin in the game.
I was telling him that every documentary that I have seen about Afghanistan, and I have seen just about every one, the conclusion you come away with is that they do not want us there. It didn't matter if the film depicted Americans, Danish, Brits, or even an old one about the Russians. It was all the same.
