Thanks to both of you——I read the article and watched the video.

Brutal.

My grandsons are military age and I cannot imagine them gong through what these 2 young men went through.

We take better care of swarms of refugees than we do for our own military.

Disgraceful.

“Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. God Himself is not secure, having given man dominion over His works! Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold. Faith alone defends. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.” HK

That it is not a cure-all and not for everyone.
But for the chosen few, an experience beyond compare.

And that is true from the tip of the spear to the very last REMF.

We hope and pray the tempo slows, so our men can catch their breath.
