    Default 654 Idaho Guard members in Iraq volunteer to stay on duty

    Edition Date: 09-21-2005
    More than 650 soldiers with the Idaho Army National Guard serving in Iraq have signed up to stay on duty, setting a record for combat-zone re-enlistments, the 116th Brigade Combat Team's public affairs staff said. http://www.idahostatesman.com/apps/p...WS01/509210318 Man, What's in those po-ta-toes? :D

    Thumbs up I am in awe

    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.
