Soldier Hoping We Invade Someplace Tropical Next

BAGHDAD, IRAQ—Sgt. Daniel Marshall, a member of the Army National Guard’s 501st Infantry, is hoping that the next place he is ordered to invade has a tropical climate. “I’m proud to have served my country here in the Iraqi desert, but it sure would be nice if we got into a conflict with someplace nice,” Marshall said Tuesday. “With any luck, President Bush is thinking about shocking-and-awing Cuba next—a little deep-sea fishing would really boost the morale of my men.” Marshall said he is “so jealous” of his uncle Stephen, who got to invade Grenada in 1983.
