One of my buddies who had already been in the Corps a year sent me a letter...written on the outside - "So your DI is Gay?" (more expletive than that) and "I Love You Too"...I don't know how long I was pushing.

But I did get to spend my first Christmas Eve in the Corps on Firewatch. Edson Range, watching cars go by on I-5. Kinda puts life in the Corps in perspective. The rest of the world is oblivious that you are standing watch, but are able to go about their daily lives because you are.

Amend that to read, "the rest of the USA" and you're bang on! Truer words were never spoken.
