Abu Muqawama retains its autonomy and the views and beliefs expressed within the blog do not reflect those of CNAS.
We at CNAS are taking the day off of work -- and that includes blogging -- but I led a group of folks around a very rainy Mall to see the World War II memorial, the DC World War I Memorial, the Korean War Memorial and the Vietnam War Memorial before pausing for a minute of silence at 1100. We then retreated to Chef Geoff's and toasted veterans and the fallen over brunch. Many thanks to all who served or are currently serving.
he should perhaps brush up a bit on military coda, how to speak politely to vets.
Xcept for that, pretty good? Or did he commit additional gaffes?
Great video, Andrew. To our past, present, and future veterans, we remember you today. Thank you for your service.
Well, you've got plenty to comment on tomorrow in that case:

Thanks to our soldiers, sailor, airmen, and Marines, past and present. And to the Coast Guard. And to all their families!
Hey all - a good news story for Vets Day - a lost SOF dog from the Australian Spec ops team was found after nearly a year in the Afghan desert. Something to smile about.

Sabi, the Special Forces pooch, will be publishing her story sometime next year. Very Andy McNab.
That's great.
Abu Muq celebrates Veteran's Day.
I'm surprised he knows what day it is.
90,000 casualties so far. How many more before it ain't worth it, Andrew?
YOU are responsible for every limb lost.
It is actually Armistice Day.
World War "Won" was officially ended on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, 1918.
And don't you ever forget it. 60,000 on the first day of the Somme. 20,000 dead.
Good luck with that COIN shit, Asshole.
I'll give my thanks, praise, and condolences to those who died and served in my family on my own website.
GO FUCK YOURSELF
Wow. There's this vitriol to Andrew that's out there that, for the life of me, I can't understand.
Rico, I had no idea that Abu is actually a pseudonym for George W. Bush, and therefore he is responsible for the invasion of Iraq and A-stan. Thanks for clearing that up. It all makes sense now.
