Thanks and thank you for your service. How was your real impresion with the Colombians

 

[McWarpig]

Ok, first impression was that they all seemed very short.
However, ”impressive” is still the word that comes to mind. I am an infantry leadership instructor and I can tell you myself and my peers were definitely impressed by the individual soldier skills of the COLBAT soldiers we met in Sinai.
