Set Them Loose

Just Set Them Loose!
We had an interesting visit at Fort Benning attending our son's graduation from boot camp. What an experience! We viewed a very small sample of the power of the US military while living amongst some of the finest folks in America.

The new soldiers had just finished rigorous training, and now are going on to learn more in their particular field. Our son is taking studies in intelligence gathering, and gave us a rather interesting display on how the enemy is searched before being taken into custody.

The fellow in the picture had been part of a demonstration of full battle gear, and was kind enough to pose for this picture.

The point is this - the enemy does not have a chance. We saw first hand the training and equipment these fellows have. Should they be set loose to do their job, they would make short work of the enemy.
