[O.F.Fascist]

Found this over at www.fark.com , its a pretty interesting read.

I know from other threads about that talk about how the M-16s didnt do to well over there, well here is some more evidence.

As an Iraqi went to drop a round into the mortar tube, Miller fired and the man fell, he said. His M-16, however, jammed, and for the next hour, Miller would pop up, fire one round, and then drop back behind the berm to manually reload another.

"Few from the 507th seem to resent the diminutive Lynch's fame and fortune. Separated from the other POWs and badly injured when her Humvee crashed, "Jessica is a hero in every way. Tiny little thing, she survived all that by herself. It's amazing," Johnson said, summing up the sentiments of many from the unit."

Seems to be a level-headed guy, doesn't he?

If I may ask, what's the O. F. stand for Mr. Fascist?

I've been saying this since we found out a number of soldiers from the 507th got captured.

I do recall hearing that a few of them got captured, not one, but for the life of me, I can't recall being blasted with the names of any soldiers besides Jessica Lynch.

More evidence to the fact that this country isn't ready to see its women captured or killed...

Maybe im sexist but i really dont think that its something we SHOULD get used to.

Shoshanna Johnson, another woman in the 507th who was captured, also injured, didn't get a $1 M deal. Why not? ANd why didn't Miller get a book/movie deal? All these soldiers deserve more recognition for their bravery under fire.
Just my not so humble opinion.
