Bouhammer's Afghan&Military Blog

http://www.bouhammer.com/wordpress

A blog created by a 21-year veteran of the Army, currently serving as a First Sergeant in the NY Army National Guard. This blog started out as a way for me to write about military related issues. It turned into an way for me to document my 16 month tour as an ETT leader in Afghanistan for family and friends. It is now one of the leading and award-winning blogs written exclusively on operations in Afghanistan and other military related topics.

Bouhammer has a great site that provides the inside scoop on the War In Afghanistan that all Americans need to be informed on the issue.

He's a featured author of 3 stories in the book: In The Sandbox by the renowned Doonesbury Author, with all profits going to a great cause.

He's been on my links list since I discovered his page. Be sure to check out his website!
