Many of us have had donation drives at our schools or workplaces to send goods to the children of Iraq. Have you ever seen what it looks like when they're donated? Well, now you can. Brent Walker who is in Baghdad, Iraq, posted this video of our troops handing them out on YouTube.

Some of our troops are in the Army Corps of Engineers. These fellows working all across Iraq on construction projects. There's not enough time in the day to talk about all of the great things they're doing. Here's just a tiny bit about a kindergarten they built.

Oh, my goodness. How to choose! How to choose! I guess I'll have to flip a coin. Both of these videos are really great -- showing wonderful things our Corps of Engineers are doing.
Just too bad these will never get real air time (no offense KT!).
That these exist and receive no play time on any "real" network, shows just how out of touch those folks are, and that they really would rather have us lose to the terrorists, (Oops! that wasn't PC enough..) the "insurgents", than admit that they are wrong.
What's most surprising to me is that they get no play time on the pro-war blogs, either. I've been beating this drum for a while now with other bloggers with very little success. However, everyone has time for a little more red meat - a criticism of their opponents or pointing out some hypocrisy or lies.
Constructive actions must be less interesting than attacks.
I like the idea of choosing between a couple of videos. Michael Yon is saying that the Pentagon should put more effort into PR, and this is one way to do it. They should be out there talking blogs into putting them up on their sites, like you do.
I have added you to my morning 'to read' list. You have a great site.
I liked the second one more, but TBH it was just because it was more well-produced.
I'll have a little war-related blogging going on soon at my place.
Thanks, Heather.
I believe everyone ought to browse on it.
