2. Can you spell D-R-A-F-T???
They Marines put a stop-loss on before the illegal invasion of Iraq and I've not heard that's been lifted, either. This decision is not going to help the morale. no matter how much money they throw at them to re-enlist.

Like Great Grandma Cora used to say..."Enough is enough - and too much stinks"!
