But Sir, there's no one left to kill.

So I just lost out on my last chance to go have any fun. I had volunteered to go work on a Military Training Team, training the Iraqi Army. It would have been great, and would probably be my last chance to get to go have any real fun. I was on the list, I was going, then they decided they had to send Martial Arts instructors and I got bumped. Now I'm stuck here in this stupid big safe base with nothing fun to do. This war is lame. I just hope the rumors about coming home early are true. I keep thinking back to my last deployment when things calmed down after the initial push into Fallujah, we had that one Lance Corporal dumb enough to ask a General "Sir, what are we still doing here?" The General answered something about sustainment operations, and the Lcpl immediately responded "But Sir, there's no one left to kill."
The General was General Mathis himself, and no, the Lcpl wasn't me. Again, there's more to this story, mabye I'll tell it later.
