This is just such a cool letter I had to pass it on. It isn’t often that the US Military or our Soldiers receive a thanks along with accolades like this so I can’t resist reveling in the kudos.

I’m just grabbing a bit of this letter so be sure and go read it all at Atlas Shrugs:

“Thank you for looking after my son”

My son and I just ended a long ‘phone conversation and here are some of his comments, believe me this is what he said. We have all seen the bullshit emails written by some clown in his lounge room pretending to be at the coal face, but this is what was said.:

“Before I came over here I thought we (the Australian Army) were pretty shit hot….. was I ever wrong!….The Yanks (I hope you don’t mind me using that word) are so professional from the top to the bottom that it is almost embarrassing to be in their company, and to call yourself a soldier….don’t get me wrong, we are good at what we do but the Yanks are so much better…..they are complete at what they do, how they do it and their attitude is awesome….they don’t complain they just get on with the job and they do it right…..

YeeHaaawww!
