Saving the World in Style

Taking a large cross section of society, the military represents all walks of life. One of the things I learned while in service is that, very often, you’re required to work with people that, in other circumstances, you wouldn’t give the time of day. To endure it requires patience, diplomacy, and -- sometimes -- substantial servings of alcohol. Scott Thomas Beauchamp is a perfect example of this.

( Snipped for long, conservative, military rant. )

In the end, I get the feeling that Mr. Beauchamp is going to get the attention he so longed for – but probably not for the reasons he thinks. Sure, he’ll become a poster child for Left wing nutjobs, a la Cindy Sheehan. I’m willing to bet, however, that Alpha Company, 1/18 Infantry will give him front and center for totally different reasons.
