I just read an article on msnbc and was wondering if it applied to anyone on here since there are so many members of this site.
Article title: Marines to issue Involuntary call-ups.
Up to 2500 Marines will be called back for active duty in either Iraq or Afghanistan.

I heard about that. George is not backing down one bit from the task at hand.
A friend of mine said he will go AWOL (not sure about spelling) before he goes back to Iraq. He already did 2 tours and said it has changed him forever being on the front line.
There are no former Marines... once a Marine, always a Marine 8)
I feel sorry for those poor guys.
It makes no sense to send them back.
Iraq is a mess...the Shiite vs. Sunni situation is undeterminable by U.S. Troops.
It's no longer about a real or imagined threat of terror over there.
My heart goes out to them.

That would be the correct acronym, however it is still wrong. If your friend truly is a United States Marine he may not want to go but he will because it's his duty, unless he's a poser.
