JB letter to 290th MP CO in Kabul

Post by PHAW Webmistress »

This is kewl!!! :D

Hello Sean,
I hope you are keeping your head down over there. I just wanted to drop you guys a note to inform you that you have made the big time. You are now part of the video projection of the License to Chill tour and so far the response has been great to the "Pashtun Parrot Heads." The dancing girls told me to tell you guys the think you are all cute. Anyway our tour of duty is rolling along and the shows are going great. Hopefully we can hook up on the tour when you guys get back stateside. If not, looks like I will have to dodge a few rounds and come to you. It’s okay I took a little fire in Jamaica . I know the Jamaican swat team isn’t the Talliban but it is my only combat experience. Take care of yourselves and see you this summer I hope. Can you get Radio Margaritaville in Afghanistan .. If not, I will work on it.
Jimmy

That is SO cool! I hope it raised the spirits of our troops abroad - they deserve it and need it!

PHAW - is Sean your son?

I got a chuckle out of the sentence about his only combat experience being in Jamaica! :lol:

Cool !!!

VERY nice letter
I hope that all the greedy bastards in the world
Come back as lobsters.
You know that life at the bottom of the food chain
Suits them well.
I think that all of the evil people of the world
Come back as horseflies,
They want one last bite before they're sent to hell.

Agree with everyone, Jimmy is quite a remarkable person, but we all knew that anyway :D
