Hello again.  I got something a little more light hearted for you this time.  When most people who have a clue think about the military keeping squared away usually comes to mind eventually.  This on the other hand is what happens when a soldier needs a little push to keep himself squared away, in this instance cleaning his room.

There's a lot for a young private to do in the barracks if he looks around for it however if you take to much time looking for escapist barracks thrills you can overlook some stuff, and one of the most important things to remember about your barracks room is that the barracks rooms you're in don't belong to you; they belong to your company commander.  This is the story of a private first class who learned this lesson the hard way.  The names in this story have been changed to protect the wise and the stupid.

PFC Johnson was having trouble diagnosed earlier in the month with severe depression he was on medication and did not have many friends save the soldier living in the room down the hall and a specialist he talked to only occasionaly.  If you ask me who actually knew Johnson he was just trying to find his place in the world; probably never having much in thee way of successes in his life he joined the army to try and make a name for himself, but PFC Johnson who is doing fine now btw slipped he didn't maintain his room, he didn't heelp his roomate clean their common area all he did wwas watch movies and play video games until the day his room inspected.  I got the misfourtune of seeing his room because i was walking by and our unit First Sergeant called me to look at it.  I thought a bomb had exploded in there: crumb's all over the floor, dirty clothes on top of thee crumbs, clean clothes on top of the dirty clothes, drink bottles everywhere, and there was a putrid stench coming off that room I almost had to leave the room for a momment.

To make a long story short PFC Johnson's punishment was take everything out of his 2nd floor room furniture included to start that Friday the day of the labor day 4-day weekend.  Ouch.  To make matters worse no matter how clean his room got he had to do that for three days.   Forget the 4-day soldier, you have a mission.  In conclusion Johnson has some bigger muscles now and better understanding of the roles cleanliness and organization play in the Army.   I come by and check his room daily my way of making sure that the poor kid never loses another 4-day.  Thanks for reading more coming this weekend.

The thing I love the most about extreme Liberal people is that just when I imagine I can't find a reason to hate them even more than I already do they come up with that something else to fuel the Flames inside me that around election years seem to continuously burn anyway.  My question is that is anyone actually buying their whole spin on Sarah Palin? I know I'm not but I'm a supporter of that ticket.  However, I can't be any less a supporter of this whole Obama mess.  Which to be fair he has condemned but do you really think he's that incensed by what the media is doing to Sarah Palin well trying to do because for the most part I don't think they're succeeding at least I hope not.  Ostracizing a woman because of a mistake made by one her children is not how you win an election especially if its an issue that's is shared by thousands maybe millions of households across America.  That whole scandle strategy just will not work.  No that is inaccurate that strategy won't work on the thinking person which I tend to think most people across the country fall into that category however there are nut jobs out there.
 Call me an optimist but I'm thinking that because of the fallout from this McCain wins the Presidency.  The sad part of this is that the liberalist media promotes this craziness and even though everyone has a right to freedom of speech I still think more needs to be done in sending the media the message that this kind of muckraking should not and will not be tolerated.

On a more personal note an aquaintance of mine was killed in Iraq a few weeks ago I ask anyone who happens to read this to pray for that Specialist's family which includes a wife and children.  May they find peace in their dark time.  However, on a broader note the Iraq War is actually going well even if you add the new outbreak of violence designed by the enemy to sway the upcoming elections serious progress is being made.  That comes from a source of mine inside a Military Police company that is currently deployed there.  My unit will leave out for the box later one next year.  Thanks for reading come back because i do plan on making new posts as frequently as I can.
