Our son is in the
48th from Statesboro and is at Camp Striker. Your articles gave us a
personal insight that we that we have not had before. Thank you for your
willingness to take the personal risk to provide these articles.
Thank you so much
for your wonderful columns and especially while you were in Iraq. I
know your being there meant very much to the 48th. What a wonderful
opportunity to read about what is happening over there from a neutral
observer from Georgia who we can trust completely.
Thank you for your
courage in going to Iraq to report a truthful account of the positive
side of the war on terrorism. I have read every word of each article in
the Valdosta Daily Times and appreciate your reporting. Keep up the good
work.
I know you had
to put your life on the line while you were over there. You also had to
put your life here in the states on hold. Again, I commend you for your
efforts.
I've
been reading your daily columns from Iraq and would like to thank you
for a job well done. Throughout the Iraq conflict, I have been disgusted
with the main stream media and their constant gloom and doom reporting -
very little coverage of the good things happening. The daily acts of
courage of our brave men and women in uniform largely goes unreported.
As a Vietnam veteran, I found your articles to be a breath of fresh
air. Great job, and good work!
I 100%
congratulate you on the wonderful candid articles you are sending back
from Iraq ! It is a shame the National 4th estate reporters only send
back "If it bleeds, it leads" stories. Yours are telling a completely
different side of the country and its peoples.
I just
read your Band of Brothers column. I must say it was a spectacular view!
I am a journalism major and hope to someday affect people with my words
the way your column just affected me.
Thank
you for writing such an excellent descriptive article about a day in the
life of a 48th Brigade Combat Team soldier. We need everyone to know
just what it is that our "Citizen Soldiers" are doing and especially the
sacrifices they have made in order to do this.
Thanks
for your article. My son was in Echo 2/24, which was previously in TOD
(Triangle of Death.) When they took over the main road was open (sort
of), and not much more. They opened FOBs (Forward Operating Bases), and
kicked insurgent butt. It is great to read that their work is carrying
forward.
