Michelle Malkin has an update on PFC Joshua Sparling's recovery. It's mixed news.
Many of you will remember the story of Pfc. Joshua Sparling, the wounded soldier who received a disgusting death-wish greeting card in December while hospitalized at Walter Reed Army Hospital. Sean Hannity has kept close contact with Sparling and interviewed him yesterday about his condition. Sad news:
Sparling's leg will have to be amputated below the knee--but he wants to "get back to [Fort Bragg] and "jump right back in his unit (the 82nd Airborne)."

Thanks, Tony.

BAGHDADI, Iraq – Cpl. Josh G. Cliatt, a team leader with I Company, 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, talks to locals while a U.S. M1-A1 Abrams tank provides security during Operation Lion March 2. Marines, soldiers and sailors from Regimental Combat Team 7, as well as Iraqi soldiers, concluded the counterinsurgency five-day operation March 5. The operation was designed to disrupt insurgent activity in Baghdadi, a town nestled along the Euphrates River 130 miles west of Baghdad. More than 80 weapons caches were discovered – a total of more than 62 tons of munitions and weapons – as well as the capture of 65 suspected insurgents. Two insurgents, one Iraqi soldier, and two U.S. service members were killed during the operation. Cliatt is a Dallas native. Photo by: Cpl. Adam C. Schnell
Read Story Associated with this photoGiving Yale the Finger (nail)
On Fox News this morning were two Yale alumni who have come up with a great way to remind Yale of just who they’ve admitted as a student - and just what you think of that.
Yale recruited and admitted former Taliban mouthpiece Sayeed Rahmatullah Hashemi (who took a terrorism class as one of his first academic endeavors - no wonder he’s got a 3.3 grade average so far). This is the same Yale that is seeking to ban military recruiters from campus, and makes its ROTC students travel some 50 miles to conduct their training at UCONN.
The alumni have suggested mailing a fake fingernail to Yale University - a reminder of the fact that they’ve admitted as a student a non-apologetic former member of a regime that used to remove the fingertips of women who wore nail polish.
You can send your correspondence / fake nails to:

You can also send your thoughts (and fake nails) to Yale’s president

A Letter from Willie of Soldiers' Angels Germany
Cindy Sheehan Ramstein Air Base and the war against the terrorism and their heroes!
Why must she demonstrate against the United State policy here in Germany? This is not the right place! I am glad that the German/American political relationship has turn for the better now! I know here in Germany, a lot of young people do not remember what the Americans have done for us after the WWII. Without the Americans we had not what we have to day! If you are engage in that the US soldiers do in Iraq, you know that they help to build up the Iraqi people their country again!
Some of the brave young men and women around the world are risking their lives to preserve freedom, liberty and safety. They are the men and women of military in the United States, Europe and other parts of the world, who fight against terrorism and come under attack from terrorist combatants.Some times these brave men and women sacrifice their lives in this fight against terrorism. Anyone can imagine how painful it is for their family and the love ones. These soldiers lost their live as heroes who helped secure a future for generations. Let us not forget all the terrorist attacks we had around the world since September 11th, 2001.
They all fight or fought for more freedom in our world and to make our world a better place for all humanity. I am grateful that they do, but I am sad that some of them paid such a high price for our freedom. I am thankful that they fought against terrorism. I am very proud of them!
I am here to support these troops and all the men and women who fight against terrorism. I am thankful for the opportunity through the Soldiers Angels to support our American friends and soldiers in Iraq, Afghanistan and the wounded soldiers here in Germany, US Hospital Landstuhl with transitional backpacks. They all have given so much for other peoples' freedom.
A mother`s son was killed by a 'freedom fighter' in Iraq. She should be proud and should not gives the terrorist hope.
Yours sincerely,
Wilhelmine Aufmkolk

Talking with Heroes Announces Guests For March 12, 2006 Talk Show
MEDIA ADVISORY
COLORADO SPRINGS, CO / PR FREE / Mar 09 2006 --
Talking with Heroes.com Talk Show continues on its mission to give military personnel a global platform to share their mostly untold stories and to thank, honor and support the men and women serving The United States.
The following is March 12, 2006 guest list:
CW5 (Chief Warrant Officer) Paul Holton better known as “Chief Wiggles,” is the founder of Operation Give (www.operationgive.org), a humanitarian organization that ships toys, medicine and educational supplies to children in war-torn and devastated nations throughout the world. He traveled around Iraq visiting children’s hospitals, orphanages, schools and poor neighborhoods, handing out much needed supplies. Operation Give continues to send items to Iraq where they are distributed to children all over the country.
Alexandra R. Lajoux lives with her husband and son in Arlington, Va. Lajoux has
worked for 20 years for a Washington, D.C., professional association, and she has
published some books on business topics, but her true passion is music. Her interview will focus on how she came to write and produce the song, "We Thank You," which was recently approved to be played to the troops in Iraq- her dream.
Paul Shrater, co-founder and vice president of marketing of Minimus.biz (www.minimus.biz), operates a retail as well as a wholesale business. Minimus is proud to be involved with the support efforts for troops, both domestically and around the world. Minimus has worked with Soldiers’ Angels to create a line of care packages based on the feedback of what the troops overseas wanted. Minimus has been featured in numerous publications and on several television programs, including NBC’s The Today Show. NASA recently became a customer of Minimus, ordering various condiment packets to send up with the astronauts to the International Space Station.
