"Two choices! Surrender or Die!"!
In his own words... "If they choose not to surrender, then we will kill them with extreme prejudice...by dropping bombs on them, shooting them in the face, or beating them to death with our entrenching tools."
Thank you Command Sgt. Major John Wayne Troxell! No mixing of words here!
If you have an opportunity to get to the Facebook version of this check out the comment from the Chris Wyatt, a 26 yrs. veteran re: his total disgust at the "do or die" message our Command Sgt. Major John Wayne Troxell delivered to daesh, isis, isil, is... whatever. I can't get on Farcebook to comment, let alone copy the comment. But then again it's probably a good thing. I would have been banned for my comment on that liberal site... again.
Either way Chris Wyatt, thank you for your service. You're proof that even snowflakes can serve our country.
RE: Command Sgt. Major John Wayne Troxell, THANK YOU!!! Finally, some insistence of swift, complete finality is surfacing. Now all we need to do is get it done!
UPDATE:
I had Chris Wyatt's comment sent to me by an old Farcebook friend. Here it is if you (like me) are banned from Farcebook.
"
Chris Wyatt Excuse me, Command SGT MAJ Troxell? I have not served 26 years in uniform to hear the highest-ranking enlisted man in my ENTIRE COUNTRY use this sort of crude and barbaric language with regards to anyone, not even our crudest and most barbaric enemies. "Shooting them in the face"? "Beating them to death with our entrenching tools"? HOW MANY TIMES have we all taken our services' respective courses on the law of armed conflict? Courses which emphasize that America takes the high road? This is absolutely unbecoming of an NCO - ANY NCO - and least of all our nation's highest.
You, of all people, should be setting the example for countless thousands of young men and women in uniform. Speak firmly. Tell the enemy that we welcome their surrender, but we will have no choice but to use deadly force if they do not. And leave it at that. You will have delivered your message and maintained your dignity as a soldier, a high leader, and a human being.
Dear heavens, man. How have we come to this? How have we reached the point where America's best and brightest soldier has traded stoic resolve for trash-talk threats to shoot our enemies in the face and beat them to death with shovels? Are you leading our nation's enlisted force, or about to participate in a professional wrestling match?"

I respectfully disagree with Wyatt.
