Season's Greetings

God rest you merry, Gentlemen

A .51 caliber started hammering on the left flank. Ron watched two of his men collapse.

Let nothing you dismay

"Go, Go, Go...move, keep moving...!"

Remember Christ our savior

Bits of Corporal Jesus Hidalgo's brain splattered Ron's face.

Was born on Christmas day

Ron tracked his tracers into the enemy.

To save us all from Satan's power

The berm crunched as Ron drove his butt plate into the swarthy face

When we had gone astray

"RIGHT FLANK, RIGHT FLANK...LEFT'S A DIVERSION...RIGHT FLANK!"

Ohhh, tidings of comfort and joy

"We regret to inform you

Comfort and joy

that Lt. Ronald Stoppable

Ohhh, tidings of comfort and joy

is missing in action and presumed dead."

Happy Thanksgiving
