This is the original Rules Of Engagement card that I was issued for my deployment to Iraq. I think these were issued to us at one of the briefings we had to sit through in Kuwait. If you read it closely, you'll see that warfare has really evolved. Now we're killing people indiscriminately by the rules! [If you can't read the card, click the image to enlarge it.]
The back of the card:
This was one of the "green monster" notebooks that I carried in Iraq. It's a very unique symbol of authority in the military, and Marines go to great lengths to personalize them. This one is a play on "winning the hearts and minds," as a graphic representation of, "two in the heart and one in the mind."
