Nice to see, I have seen it before, but cannot remember where. Is there a better quality one around? this one is very pixelated.

Good stuff.

And what did we get for sending our boys to Iraq? A pat on the back? A couple million dollars and empty promises for admission into NATO or the EU?

Our "leaders" are idiots...and being played by everyone.

Having Macedonian military in Iraq was the price paid for the US recognition of Macedonia under its constitutional name and continued support, therefore I don't think it was such a bad move.

What's next? Sucking American cock so McDonald's opens in downtown Skopje? Get real...

NMKD, I think you will already find McDonalds there.
I strongly believe in maintaining the integrity of Macedonia. But an isolationist policy will see it resembling Zimbabwe in no time. Is this your preferred option?

My point was that, why are we doing favors to countries, so that they grant us the right of self-recognition as a legal state entity?

Recognition under our constitutional name is an automatic and inalienable right of every country.

Do you know why? Because it's a job like mine and yours, only difference I chose to sit in an office and their choice was a paid soldier. I am sorry but I am getting a bit fed up with our boys here there, to be honest they get paid a hell of a lot to go to Afganistan or wherever,while the british or US soldiers get paid just the normal wage. I didn;t send them or make them, they wanted to. In MAcedonia soldiers are fighting to go to Iraq or Afganistan. They know how the country runs, like every other country and if they don;t like it they can go and plan potatos, I can sell them some land.

US Army recognition for Macedonian Sergeant-Major Stojanovic

US Army recognition for Macedonian Sergeant-Major Stojanovic

Wednesday, 15 July 2009

Ceremony of presenting a US Army recognition to Macedonian Army (ARM) chief non-commissioned officer, Sergeant-Major Boban Stojanovic, will be held in the Army Hall on Wednesday.

The ceremony is to be attended by Defense Minister Zoran Konjanovski, Chief of ARM Staff, Lieutenant-General Miroslav Stojanovski, US ambassador to Macedonia Philip Reeker and other guests.

The recognition was allocated to Stojanovic at the US Army Sergeants Major Academy in base "Fort Bliss", Texas on June 26 for outstanding results in studies, but also for career achievements. Boban had scored on average 99% on all of his exams and projects.

This recognition is presented for the first time to a student-non-commissioned officer, who is not a member of the US Army.

Now there is some good news, it seems that one of our main avenues for gaining respect as a nation is by arms.
