That is testament to the fact that these soldiers believe in what they're doing.

I'll be watching and listening to learn if this makes the msm.

Amen to that. People don't understand that alot of the guards are engineers, city planners, managers etc...they're doing some great works over there. Influencing hearts and minds of an entire generation and building a nation from nothing is worthy of praise.
