I will be happy when the Marines that are the BTT (Border Transition Team) complete their mission. Their mission is at the top of the list of the Corp's most important missions. At that time, my son will be able to return to his duty station in Okinawa. The BTT has been "in country" for eight months now and has another four before their mission is complete. If our marines don't teach the Iraqis how to man their borders and how to root out insurgents, democracy will not have a chance in Iraq.
