History TV: "Bravo Company: Kandahar" Tonight (5 Nov 07)

That was tame compared to some guys I've worked with.  (or me for that matter  )  Luckily I have to think more when I type and omit the "verbal pauses" to collect my thoughts.

Mike, thanks for doing that. It showed me a lot more about what the guys over there are going through.  I can't help but wonder though, if you found yourself worn down by the heat and the sand and the lack of showers.  Do you think that might have contributed to what seems to be a sense of futility that you seemed to express towards the end of the documentary? 

I am assuming that "our" Sheerin and Mike Sheerin are one and the same.

Close, Mike is actually my brother.

I enjoyed how the interpeter was learning the verb/noun of "falk"!I was waiting for rickey and julian to show up a few times lol.Seems like my kinda guy.

I think if they had gotten into a TIC Mike may have made a differnt type of documentary.However He had to find a angle im sure in the editing room to make a cohesive peice.The only real angle he had were the 3 taliban.I really didnt like the show.

It's the kind of peice the peaceniks can really use as the "poor afgani".And when mike started talking about the poor scared people getting swabbed for GSR I was about to turn it off,then the chopper came and picked him up.

I will remember the name,he wont get any comments from me and my buddys here.

Regardless, nice piece of work.

Agree, very compelling.  And a great behind-the-scenes look for us civilians.
Good job.

I think Vern that you need to post that as part of the official welcoming message.
