p> SPENDING TIME WITH CORPORAL QUINONES br> Re: Ben Stein's How Was Your Day? : /p>

Ben Stein's query at the end of his article about Corporal John Quinones taking out terrorists in Iraq (and lovin' every minute of it) to his readers is: "What did you do today?"

My response is: "Nothing that manly."

p>Rock on, Corporal. God bless you. br> -- Nicky Billou /p>

As an Army veteran of the "Vietnam Conflict" I found your piece very heart warming.

Corporal John Quinones's statement "when he.....spots terrorists laying a roadside bomb and lights them up with his B-240, he feels as if he's earning his pay" will twist the pacifists' panties like General Mathis exclaiming his joy in blowing away the Taliban jihadist who have been slapping their women around. These men are the antithesis of the liberals' ideal, the "Metrosexual."

p>P.S. An M79 is a 40mm grenade launcher first used in Vietnam.
