I am reading a book called “We Were One” by Patrick O’Donnell. It’s one of those books that, I started on Tuesday night, but I know I will love it, so I want to wait and read it slowly. I hope HBO puts Taking Chance on again.
I am sorry, so sorry about your cousin.
My 20 year old daughter joined the Army last year. She is currently at LDAC. I meet these kids and I think ... we are SO LUCKY to have kids like these to protect us.
My cousin was over there doing what he wanted to do. He died in the same way Chance Phelps did. He was a gunner on a Humvee hit by an IED. Unfortnately, his mother is as nutty as Cindy Sheehan and wondered why George Bush killed her son ...
I’ll keep your daughter in my prayers. And you’re right, we ARE lucky to have yet another generation who are willing to risk their lives for others who in many cases are totally ungrateful and ignorant of the sacrifice being made on their behalf.
