Blowing Off Steam In Iraq

I have three nephews in the service. Two by blood, and a third young man who is married to my niece. One of those gentlemen sent these video links today of U.S. troops blowing off steam while serving in a dangerous part of the world.

Apparently this vids have been making the rounds on the internet, and while neither includes "my guys," I post them as a reminder that even our young men and women in harm's way need to cut loose once in a while to cope with being so far from home. When our service men and women aren't building schools, roads and updating that nation's water service, electric grid and providing a safer place for commerce and just plain citizens in that nation, they've got to goof off a little just to get through each day.
