Heading back to Afghanistan

My name is a hint I am one of the private contractors that so many hate, and yes I make decent money. To all of the people saying not to go, stop supporting unConstitutional wars, etc..do you pay taxes? If so, then stop the rhetoric, you are in the same boat. My job is to save lives, I have been to Iraq and Afghanistan doing what I now do, and can honestly say that if not for me several servicemen and women, from several countries, would have went home in a body bag, instead of intact and breathing. I disagree with the war, but the truth is many of those kids have no idea what they are signing up for, and just because they were duped into the lie that it is patriotic to go kill muslims in order to preserve our freedom in the USA, I don't think they deserve to die for it, and I will fully support getting them home alive, with all available resources.
I disagree with the wars, am opposed to interventioinism in general, don't believe 9/11 was pulled off by some Saudi's with box cutters, don't believe everyone that worships the false moon god is a terrorist, don't believe if you die "fighting for freedom" you automatically go to Heaven, don't believe the Taliban is any kind of threat to any American that is not on their soil, don't believe the WMD's ever existed and I voted for Ron Paul in both primaries he ran in.
That being said, if me going to a war zone to help safe-guard our own military members (and those of other nations including Australia, Canada, Poland, Italy, Britain and a few others I have worked for) and make a good amount of $ while doing it, I am in! It is good to have a few patriots behind enemy lines, if you know what I mean.
I do not kill people, I am bold about the Constitution and spreading the truth of the Gospel of Christ, and seek to "convert" as many people as possible when I go. I do not feel the slightest bit of hypocrisy in doing what I do, and if you cannot accept that, sorry for ya, but that is just the way it is.
Thank you to all who will support my family and I with prayers and appreciation.

That is one of the funniest things I have read all week! :)

Camel Spiders. Period. I had nightmares of them when I came back to the point that I was losing a lot of sleep. Just thinking about being over there again and in their lair makes me cringe. The food sucks, having rockets and mortars landing all around is no fun, the weather is terrible, you cannot trust anyone, bathroom facilities are horrid, etc. but all of that pales in comparison to the wicked, demonic, hell-spawned little critters called Camel Spiders.

Will keep you in my prayers until you come home safe. Make sure you post a thread when you get home!

listen mate, i never asked the govt. to spend any of my tax money on illegal wars....they steal it to fund stupid wars for oil

Be VERY VERY careful.

The entire area is in play. An event is scheduled in the Middle East which may not remain under control and, depending on your location, be dangerous. If you operate UAV equipment, you should be relatively safe from a domestic situation. If other parties do not allow it to remain domestic, you will not be protected within a UAV OP center.

A wise man would have his family ready for life without him. A wise man would prepare them and also have a very fast way out of the area.

The sandbox will be no better.

LOL - I've only seen them on youtube but they were HORRIBLE!!! Best of luck to you & your family, stay safe.
