Marine In Iraq Says Morale Is High, But Troops Dismayed


Marine In Iraq Says Morale Is High, But Troops Dismayed By MSM Coverage
The Washington Times (11/22) runs a field report from an anonymous Marine, relayed through his father, a retired marine, According to [name redacted], morale among our guys is very high.  They not only believe they are winning, but that they are winning decisively. They are stunned and dismayed by what they see in the American press, whom they almost universally view as against them. The embedded reporters are despised and distrusted. They are inflicting casualties at a rate of 20-1 and then see s*** like Are we losing in Iraq? on television and the print media. For the most part, they are satisfied with their equipment, food and leadership.
