I just received a message on Flick containing the resume of a 29-year old man from Kosovo who wishes to join the US Army.  While he does have some impressive accomplishments, I’m not really in a position to help.  Sorry, Batatina.

Well, I guess knowing the way we feed our guys over there in Iraq, I’m surprised this is the first resume you’ve gotten. But forcing a purely ideological discussion on this (which I’m sure could stray far from reality), maybe that says something about how certain parts of the world view our military. Some places might actually view our military strength with admiration. As opposed to the rest of Europe where envy would be a better description.

Oh come on Oculus! Do you really think that? No disrespect to our American friends but here in the UK we appreciate that the US forces have lots of money and kit but we certainly don’t view you guys with envy. I’m sorry to say that I think most of the soldiers here think that you guys have “all the gear but no idea”.

You may have the kit but there’s too many trigger happy idiots.

Really good site, and a pleasant suprise… Good Luck!,
