FORT WORTH - A picture on the cover of the New York Times tells an interesting story.

It's war and when combat calls, soldiers answer, even in their undies.

The man wearing the pink boxers in the photo is from Fort Worth.

The picture came out Tuesday.

Army specialist, Zachary Boyd, got to his parents, just before the paper did, calling them from Afghanistan.... http://www.wfaa.com/sharedcontent/dws/wfaa/latestnews/stories/wfaa090514_lj_hawes.13ebf30.html

I see no reason for action. He had a choice, take a minute and dress or get to the line and fight in what ever he's got on. Not responding immediately could have been seen as possible dereliction of duty. Anyway, this picture is just priceless!!!:D

One more reason I'm glad I joined the Navy
:flag:

Hahah! Great Guy!

However I will say in the position he's in, it looks like it would have been prudent to at least put on some boots!
