Christmas in Iraq

From the blog, 'One Marine's View' by Capt B (who may be the best military blogger on the planet), comes this funny, poignant story of a soldier's Christmas. Below, is an excerpt.

.

"We had a couple of Santa’s that conducted a frontal attack on one

location as their fighting spirit rang through like the holidays as they

kicked in doors and delivered their gifts, what a country!
hey opened up the BIG can of whoop ass on one terrorist

but then of course we gave them a medal, some more ammo

and claymore mines and fired our support by fire positions to

let them continue their attacks."
