Active Duty Soldiers Request Support

All the way from Iraq two active duty military officers, backed by thousands of fellow soldiers, delivered a well-needed message to Congress: support their mission and stop calling for retreat.

To do this, Lt. Jason Nichols and Staff Sergeant Dave Thul, from their respective posts in Baghdad and Al Asad, coordinated an online petition that so far has been signed by 2,843 Active Duty, Reserve and National Guard military personnel members.

Yesterday it was received by Republican members of the House and Senate. The petition, called “Appeal for Courage,” reads:

**As an American currently serving my nation in uniform, I respectfully urge my political leaders in Congress to fully support our mission in Iraq and halt any calls for retreat. I also respectfully urge my political leaders to actively oppose media efforts which embolden my enemy while demoralizing American support at home. The War in Iraq is a necessary and just effort to bring freedom to the Middle East and protect America from further attack.**

Comments:
They certainly deserve all the support we can give and all the prayers we can pray.

Lord Bless Our Precious Troops.
