Suicide Bomber killed 12 Serviceman at the Abbey Gate getting onto Kabul Airfield.
We have a crew shuttling people by C-130 and about ready to send teams out the door to assist in refugees coming into the US now. Please keep All those serving in harms way in your thoughts and prayers during this unprecedented time. Edited by 48cj2a - 27 Aug. 2021 at 8:45am |

To say this is VERY VERY VERY upsetting is a huge understatement. Lord, please save what is left. Grace and peace to those who can still be saved.

The powers that be in Washington didn't learn from our mistakes in Vietnam.
Seems there were few plans to get civilians out, just a politically motivated date certain for the troops. Prayers for all involved, military or civilian. |

My apologies up front but the news from Kabal is not sad but rather criminal. We have people leading our country that have no business leading. Now 12 Marines are dead 12 sets of parents are heart broken plus countless family members. So don't tell us tell the fools in Washington, and I mean all of them not one party the whole lot. I feel 4 years 65-69 USMC gives me the right to say this.

Let's not forget the Navy Corpsman who also died with the Marines or those wounded. |

We Get the Tyrants and scum that cheated and lied and are now destroying our country from within and are taking all our freedoms away. They are trying to turn us all on each other and have us not see what's really going on. The things that are going on over there right now to the men woman and children of Afghanistan are unimaginable atrocities. Those sick monsters armed the enemy and left our allies and our American Brothers and Sisters to be slaughtered by the wolves. God bless our Serviceman and soldiers and Navy Corpsman who are left there and giving there all in full measure. God help us.

Four administrations.....there's plenty of blame to go around. (if you feel like this is a good discussion to carry on here.....personally I don't feel we need to but I'm sure there will be those that want to but I don't feel like its a good idea)
Would be nice just to keep it jeeps here. |

My intent was solely to recognize and support the loss of my Brothers in Arms and those serving in harms way.
I have strong feelings myself having done a tour at Bagram Air Base but please keep this in mind when making a post...

Sad situation that isn't going to have a solution. Their faith is a self destructive one. I fear for all Americans. The news has been and will be disturbing and depressing. I hate to read it anymore. I miss peace. It's a rare pleasure these days. By canceling this post, it would be denial of what's happening. All should stay informed. Oilly

As windyhill said “God help us.”
Only God can… No president, no administration, no military, no government, no earthly man. Keep the faith
