Finding Joy in Order

This was originally posted by Blackfive and linked by Glenn Reynolds and while they certainly don't need any hits from my pathetic amount of traffic I do want those of you who don't read them regularly to give this story a look.

"When we first started taking fire, I just looked to the right and saw seven or eight guys shooting back at us — muzzle flashes...At first, I shot one guy.  I saw him fall" - Sgt. Leigh Ann Hester

 

And for the anal retentives out there:

The sergeant runs low on ammo and runs back to a vehicle to reload. She moves to her squad leader's vehicle, and because this squad is led so well, she knows exactly where to reach her arm blindly into a different vehicle to find ammo-because each vehicle is packed exactly the same, with discipline.

Thanks for the links and the commentary.  I would hope that all can read and cheer this story.  Sadly, I think many will not cheer as it destroys their petty political views.

Well Done.

Greywar, I agree with your point. Female soldiers, airmen, marines, sailors, do their respective services proud and their ability to conduct themselves militarily, in war needs not be questioned.
