CJ has come up with a great idea and is transforming his blog to meet the needs of the future…

In reality, A Soldier’s Perspective is taking a new direction. In the tradition set by No End But Victory, I am transforming the ASP site into a multi-soldier, multi-marine forum. Are you a soldier or marine who would like to start a blog but just don’t have the time to maintain a full-time blog? Was your blog shut down by Big Brother and you still need an outlet that can’t be shut down? Why was your Big Brother deployed with you to begin with? Are you still wetting your cot? If so, this is the place to talk about it.

A Soldier’s Perspective is just that, a perspective from the point of view of a soldier or marine. If you’re deployed, talk about the deployment. Post about something great that happened to you while on patrol. Post something not so great about that one MRE that had you constipated for 4 days before you erupted. Post about anything you like that has to do with military topics. If you can connect the dots between the Olsen Twins, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and your military service you can post about it (mmmm….Olsen Twins!!). If you’ve recently returned from the front and have some interesting stories, post them here. If you’re about to be deployed, post here. If you’re an office jockey soldier or marine who just earned his Chairborne Wings, talk about it here. There is really only one rule: no profanity! ASP readers are a sophisticated bunch who fart in private, pick their nose under the protection of cotton hankie, and wash their hair more than once a week.

What a great way to help provide the Soldiers’ Perspective. Sgt Hook out.

  2. CJ is a truly funny guy that I’ve had a great time following. It seems that his newbies are going to be just as good a read with stories all their own. I think it’s great to have the chance to ‘meet’ more of our guys who are serving.

In view of a recent tendency to identify characters in fiction with real people, it seems proper to state that there are no real people in this volume: both the characters and their names are ficticious. The names or designations of any military units are ficticious. There are no living people nor existing military units presented in this book. -Ernest Hemingway

Fiddler's Green


Halfway down the road to hell,
In a shady meadow green,
Are the souls of all dead troopers camped
Near a good old-time canteen.
And this eternal resting place
Is known as Fiddler's Green.
