They who? It was an interview with one person. He was gung ho and I suspect others are too (they better be they don't have any choice really). It is in their best interest. Looked like a purty barren place to me. But then one mans beauty is another mans pig.

Actually there were two, a capt and staff sgt..

and it was on cspan, I serioously doubt they took the only two positive guys in the whole theater... if you'll look, you'll see re-enlistments are at all time highs. These guys believe in what they are doing, believe they are making a difference in the world and my hat is off to them.

Oh crap your right it was two guys. I did notice after looking at the video for the second time the captain wasn't wearing a tie. My wifes keeps telling me to wear my glasses. But I did apply for a helicopter repairman job in Huntsville last week. They made it look like it was a regular job. One army guy emailed me some gibberish and one called and very politely told me I was to f**king old.
