Someone You Kinda Know
Yesterday in a very small combat outpost in Afghanistan the theater commander took time to pin a Bronze Star W/V Device and Purple Heart on a young NCO that I know very well; like the day he was born!
Merry Christmas all. While neither of mine can be home this year, this photo made my holidays.

Wow, nice picture! And a nice Christmas present in lieu of actually getting to be home! Tell him thanks for me too!
Gotta ask about the uni though…I’ve never seen that one before?
Outstanding, COB6! Tell him congrats and thanks from me, as well.
The Uniform is the latest camp pattern. Kinda looks Canadian to me but Josh says it is a far better uniform than the standard ACUs.
Cool.
What is he waaring? Are those the new Army cammies?
From my old unit too! Way to go Air Assault!! Congrats! Once again the Screaming Eagles are blazing the trail for others to follow!!
I thought it was just dirty. They all look kinda like that after a few weeks without a change.
Lucky kid – a career like his father’s with his mother’s looks.
OUTSTANDING!
Well done SGT Strickland, damn fine soldierin’.
And well done COB6 and Mrs. COB6 on the great job of offspring raisin’. Merry Christmas to you and all your House!
COB6, how proud you and the Mrs. must be. I’m proud and don’t know either of you. Way to go young SGT!

Honor and Courage
HOOAH!!! And what Jonn said.
Merry Christmas to the Stricklands, wherever they may be, and to all the rest here at TAH, even you Army Sergeant! Looking forward to 2011.
HOOAH! Congratulations.
MultiCam I believe, and BZ to that young NCO.
