11. I don't think they'll let themselves be captured alive.

Sorry I've been so long getting to the threads, but you know I never like to miss anything.

That's a great picture of the women soldiers at the bottom. Saved to my hard drive. When I get a digital photo frame someday to stream to my big wall tv, it's going to take hours to go through one cycle!

Most warriors I ever met would rather be left to live in peace because they know more than the stay-at-homes what it costs to hold back the enemy.

That said, if I may digress a bit... one of my favorite pictures from several years back shows a young female IRA soldier alone in battle against British forces occupying Belfast. It's my understanding the British Army has completely withdrawn its official presence from Northern Ireland now. It would be good to see all those with British loyalties sent packing to the country some of them still prefer over their own. Can't serve two masters.
