One of the most memorable nights of my life was being in a karaoke bar in Naples with about 100 US Marines and US infantry soldiers who had been in Iraq less than 24 hours before. Talk about letting off steam. Awesome experience. There was a marked difference in spoken eloquence and political awareness between the marines and soldiers though. Very different backgrounds between the two sets.
