"I got a pissed off wife but I guess that's life for a Taliban fighting men... Still this ain't no blues it's the life that I choose of a Taliban fighting man..."

Mi sembra proprio una bella celebrazione del coraggio e dell'abnegazione dei Marines, altro che CCG!

D'altra parte, la biografia dell'autore di questa canzone parla chiaro: ministero degli esteri australiano, peacekeeper, coordinatore nelle task force di ricostruzione in Afghanistan, aquartierato in un paio di basi militari, intrattenitore per le truppe... Tutti i link che lo riguardano su en.wikipedia puntano sul ministero della difesa australiano...

Insomma, un "australiano tranquillo"...
