The unspoken oath: Infantry soldiers, Marines ... Americans don't break contact

Still we have partisans and defeatists climbing over themselves to define what it is we fight against and why it is important to leave before victory is achieved

says SSG David Bellavia, one of the lone ambassadors of America's Warrior Class.

In the name of partisan election cycle politics, television commercials and campaign talking points are now openly designed to sap the will of the American people. This is an effort to take from veterans the honorable and attainable victory our beloved friends gave their lives in exchange. Like the Islamist threat overseas, this dogma will be met head on. We cannot allow the selfish advancement of political agendas to transcend the blood sacrifices made in Afghanistan and Iraq.
