Ever Wonder Why There Are Rules?
Dadmanly explains it pretty well.
Join me in praying for Dadmanly's family. They deserve a whole lot better than this.
As is the practice here in Iraq, the Command shuts down phone and internet connections for 24-48 hours, long enough for the Military to contact affected families.If you don't understand after reading something like that....
Let me tell you why that is so important.
One of the idiots here who doesn't understand the very good reasons for the blackout, placed an anonymous call just before the blackout was imposed, saying 4 soldiers of our Division were killed, maybe more injured.
An equally idiotic (no, make that even more idiotic) news editor or reporter called Mrs. Dadmanly at home, told her about the anonymous tip, and asked her if she had heard any news? The reporters involved apparently contacted several family members.
Needless to say, with the rest of us on blackout, my wife was a basket case, as were many other family members and friends.
Join me in praying for Dadmanly's family. They deserve a whole lot better than this.
