2nd BCT soldier's plea to the world: 'Buy us beer' (check out photos!)


Interesting photo of one of Saddam's buried planes from websites Iraq photo page. Funny site. Gotta give this GI credit for ingenuity. Feel for these guys - I know the sensitivity of Islamic law - but dang they do deserve some "real beer". Their idiot CIC sure drank his share of brewskies when he was in the TANG.

To Sgt. Dale Rogers of Company C, 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, the near beer that soldiers sometimes get in Kuwait and Iraq tastes like something drained through a wet sock.

But that’s the closest the beer-loving Strike Force (2nd Infantry Division’s 2nd Brigade Combat Team) soldier will get to his favorite drink during the next few months of his deployment in Iraq.

The cyber-savvy soldier, though, has plans to make up for the lost consumption during mid-tour leave to Qatar and when he and his mates return to the States next year. And it won’t cost him a cent.

Rogers is the creative force behind www.beerforsoldiers.com, a Web site which allows true patriots to buy soldiers a beer online.
