Welcome to my site. It is a place really where I can go to clear my chest. If people read this great, if not at least I feel a little better. I decided to start this after I became fed up. With my wife, my surronding and just about everything. If any good comes from this then I will be happy. As far as military OPSEC, nothing in this blog will revealed that could be detrimental to the Military mission. OK there. My first comment on this subject is THE WAR. I am not pro/con this war. I have an opinion but that does not matter, what I do want to say though is that the effects it has on people sucks. From physical, emotional, mental, spiritual. It changes you and most of the time not in a good way. The first way it changes you is that it can maim you or even kill you. That is no joke. Sometimes you just don't come back. The hard part is to actually see and meet these family members that are grieving at the loss of their loved ones. Most people say that it is better to not become attached, but how can you not when you look into the eyes of another Soldier, Airman, Marine, or Sailor. There is no way that you can. They are all family. This week three people, human beings that I became involved with in some fashion perished to injuries incurred in Iraq, two of them 21. Just married and families to start yet, they will not get there. Kinda tough when you have kids of your own and you think one day could it happen to you? Well it does happen every day. Here. Working at this military hospital has made me realize that life is but a brief second and at any minute your clock can stop. Have you done everything you want to? If not start now.
Next time we will talk about hero's. I am in the company of them right now.
