"nor his steaming pile of a movie"

good post from maj erik peterson at Team Med-Fah. he gives an edited version of some recent events in ramadi-- can't wait to get the real scoop-- and mentions a bizarre event having to do with the movie, "Jarhead." part of his comments read, "I was even personally present at one of the events in his book ["Jarhead"], and HIGHLY dispute his account of what happened involving the Marine tank company I was assigned to. But I digress. Suffice it to say that I do not like him, Sam I Am, nor will I like his steaming pile of a movie."

go thee hence to read the whole thing.

as for me, i haven't see the damn thing either, nor will i. i had heard some bad things about the book, and didn't want to waste time or money on it.

ltcol tim crowley, home

i am pleased to say that ltcol tim crowley is back home. along with his very happy family, two of us Marine field historians were on hand to welcome him back. he says he has some leftover posts that he'll submit later, so stay tuned.
