The 1st Marine Division tore down the statue in Baghdad. In February they are redeployed to the Sunni Triangle. They want to give the people a great first impression of the Marines. It could be a life or death difference.

Help the Marines present the children of the Sunni triangle with toys, schooling and medicine. Make generosity and caring the "face of America". Tell the people the Marines are on their side.

When I was growing up in the 70s and 80s the Marines were the thick-skulled hard-ass guys who would beat you up for no good reason. Converting them to kind giving souls on our behalf is a weird and beautiful switcheroo.
