In defence of the 82nd I find pic #15 has the kind of touch I like.

“I’d Much Rather See Haitian Uniforms Wringing Haitian Necks”
Aristide did away with the Haitian army to keep them from deposing his commie azz (again).

don’t judge without follow through. when i was in Iraq this would happen a lot (i was there at the invasion and stayed in Baghdad for a year, with the great 3/325 82nd ABD) and after an interpreter could run over and we could talk to each other, the confusion would clear and myself and the guy i was subduing would either laugh it off or, if he was being an asshole and cutting in line, i would make certain he was placed at the very back of the line. but…since this blog is about looking and guessing to me the look on the guys face, the one on the ground, does look like he just needs to explain to the soldier what is happening. he doesn’t have that “you caught me, bastard” look.
