We Will Not Fly Our Flags in Iraq

We are entering Iraq to free a people. The only flag which will be flown in that ancient land is their own. Don't treat them as refugees for they are in their own country. If you harm the regiment or its history by over-enthusiasm in killing or in cowardice, no, it is your family who will suffer. We will bring shame on neither our uniform or our nation. As for ourselves, let's bring everyone home and leave Iraq a better place for us having been there. Our business now is north.
