Operation Arrowhead Ripper: Day One
The first day of operation Arrowhead Ripper was intense. The Army is giving full access to the battlefield, and while on base full access to the TOC (HQ) which means I see the raw truth on the ground, and as it feeds through the TOC. They are hiding nothing. Or if they are, it’s in plain view. (Special operations notwithstanding.) A reporter can see as much as he or she can stand.
A little Thin Lizzy for the boys…
Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven’t changed, haven’t much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazyThey were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazyThe boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
Give ’em hell boys.
