I saw that picture of Dallas SWAT members in the paper a few days ago.

By the way, if you didn't know, Dallas has the best SWAT team in the country.

Great images...

Mark Mitchell serves with the Army's 5th Special Forces Group. He's a Green Beret who was on the front lines in Kuwait and Iraq during Desert Shield and Desert Storm. He also served in Afghanistan and is set to be decorated for his service there.

Mark Mitchell noted that many of his friends are in harm's way near the front lines, and that we all are living "during historically significant times."

Mark Mitchell, who speaks fluent Arabic, said he was confident that the people of Iraq are looking forward to Saddam Hussein being driven from power.

He wrote: "The vast majority of Iraqis are eagerly awaiting liberation and they will not be disappointed.

If you're going to confront someone about it, confront me, because it was I who posted those photos, not him. The reason I didn't post any captions is because there was none. I'll make some up just to make you happy.

I highly doubt that's the case dude. Why not be positive, dude? The soldier doesn't look unhappy, but somewhat serious. The kid looks pretty happy to me just by looking at the side of his face.

i always thought the LA County Sheriffs Dept. was the best, but hey, i could be wrong...
