In coming up with a title for this post I kicked around a few different words. Words like, Quagmire, Debacle, Underachievers, Doomed, Disastrous, Lost, and Stuck.

*ahem

Hook productions proudly presents your Soldiers stuck in Iraq, embroiled in the future of a generation, as sung by the melodic Nina Simone…

  3. Excellent! EXCELLENT!!

    Great selection of transitions too!

    So Hook, when can we expect to hear you reading a short introduction to one of your stories to us with pictures? Oh the possibilities!!

    And thanks for unknowingly being my motivation to learn how to use the Windows Movie Maker.

  5. Hi:
    I found your site today. Very nice and easy to navigate. I just want to encourage you to keep it up. I also want our Troops and Veterans to know that we support them.

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.
