i like to leeve in aaaaah-mare----reeee-caaaaaaaaaaaaaa

if they were afraid a certain new mexico national guard unit was chuck full o' gang members (i.e. people who are what i like to call OFF WHITE, i.e. hispanic) shouldn't they have checked them PRIOR to allowing them into the service and PRIOR to shipping them off to probable danger in the middle east?

these men and women are putting their lives on the line. it is RIDICULOUS and wicked bad for morale to have them strip down to their shorts when they are THOUSANDS of miles away from home

when you're a jet you're a jet...........
Congressman calls for probe after report of 'degrading' gang tattoo search of Guard unit

Amid cries of racism, a Democratic Congressman is calling for a probe into a report that a National Guard unit from New Mexico was forced to strip in Kuwait to prove that they didn't have any gang tattoos.
"Calling the incident 'unfortunate and degrading,' Rep. Tom Udall said he wants a new Army investigation into a search of a New Mexico National Guard unit for gang tattoos," Thomas J. Cole reports for the Albuquerque Journal. "Other members of the state's congressional delegation said they also want to know more about the search in which dozens of members of Task Force Cobra were forced to strip down to their athletic shorts."
The New Mexico congressman added, "This doesn't appear to be the type of behavior that is supportive of our troops."............


..............Sunday's report added that the "search was based on an uncorroborated allegation made by a soldier from Wisconsin that Task Force Cobra was rife with gang members.".............
