NFL Cheerleaders Visit Troops - Marine Officer Doesn't Get the Concept
Posted By Blackfive

Lt. Col. Steven A. Simmons, deputy operations officer, 1st Marine Logistics Group, performs a routine in the cheer-off competition during the Philadelphia Eagles cheerleader's show at main side. Simmons won the competition by a show of applause from the crowd of service members. The five cheerleaders are touring Iraq to show their support for the troops and to help boost morale. The group performed a 45 minute act which included costume changes and interaction with the troops. The group also stayed long after their performance and posed for photos with service members. Location: Camp Taqaddum, IQ. Photographer: Lance Cpl. Robert Medina, 1st Marine Logistic Group Public Affairs.

Okay, I couldn't help posting that. Lt.Col. Simmons is a good sport. And to prove I'm a good sport too (after some push-ups for posting that photo), I'll post more photos, sans Marine Officers, after the Jump.

I have to say, I was there for the Girls' show. They really love us. Due to sandstorms. they were delayed 2 days travel to Baghdad, they were able to witness my re-enlistment ceremony. They were just the nicest. My hat is off to the Philly' Eagles' cheerleaders...
