Don't Betray Them

Ralph Peters:

SOLDIERS don’t beg. But an old friend of mine who’s still in uniform came close the other day. He badly wanted me to write another column before Election Day stressing that our troops are winning in Iraq.

He’s an Army veteran of three wars. Now he’s working to help Iraq become a democratic model for the Middle East. And he’s worried.

Not about terrorists or insurgents. He’s afraid John Kerry will be elected president.

Read the whole thing, of course.
