Letter to the Editor, Military Edition

I found this letter to the editor in the Stars and Stripes. It seems Sgt. 1st Class William Stone has a good head on his shoulders:

…now we have the Nobel Peace Prize being given to someone who hasn’t done anything.

How come it wasn’t awarded to me? I’ve been talking about peace for years. Oh, and wait a minute, I believe I’ve actually been fighting for peace a little bit longer than President Barack Obama has. What’s it been [for him], nine months now?

Hey, Nobel Peace Prize committee, I’ve been trying to bring peace to Iraq for 37 months. That’s four times longer than Obama.

Well, I guess it’s fitting that he be awarded the prize for nothing; he wants to give away everything that I and every other hard-working American have earned to someone else for nothing. What a joke. Wake up, America!

Great letter. Read the rest here.
