“I want to forget again. I don't want the nightmares to return.”

This is understandable. War is for young men, who do not believe they can die.

It is also for some older ones, who have a talent for strategy and mischief. But it isn’t for everybody.

If you need R & R time, just step to the rear. People have all kinds of ways to contribute to society, both in war and peace. I’ve heard that some folks even write poems.

May fortune give you peace. And may the vigilance of others keep you safe, as your vigilance served in its turn.

Thank you. I've done well for the last 25 years. I'm a microwave engineer now. But I have seen things in the AF that I want to forget forever.
