Thanks for the Ping!
I live in a very military area. Many of the schools fly military service flags along with the state flag and national colors.
I've had more than one session with friends, new and old, that all did time 'over there' and every damn one of them misses it to some degree.
What is it about the adrenaline that makes you feel more alive than anything else you've ever done?
What is it about doing something that is actually so meaningful in many ways and at many levels?
Dang....took me over three months to sleep through the night again, or to even sleep somewhat normally.
Took almost a year before I wasn't glued to the TV about anything that happend over there, wondering what Dave, Phil, Steve, Art and the rest were doing at that time.
LOL...and then here's this article and old feelings return.
Thanks...and I mean it!
