After they had accomplished their mission, and weren&#39;t involved in combat anymore....or during their off hours. (I have never seen combat; so I don&#39; t know what combat is like.)<br />And, it kind of doesn&#39;t make sense to me; because there was no real effort, work involved- to earn this case of liquor.<br /> Response by SPC Margaret Higgins made Dec 16 at 2015 10:20 AM 2015-12-16T10:20:14-05:00 2015-12-16T10:20:14-05:00 MAJ Alvin B. 1179435 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Long overdue!
