Nice to see you. Sounds like you are feeling a bit better. One hopes for the best for you and each one of our people in harm's way.

"They were a very resourceful bunch of people. I have always wondered where the rumor of the individual German soldier not being able to think for himself came from."
Yeah, ain't that the truth.
The 6th does not seem to have anybody to sing their story. That is terrible. Just dry as dust sitrep - action reports. Got to read between the lines.
I'll keep looking. I bet there are some good diaries.

I am feeling better. My last R&R adjusted my attitude. I must have been pretty grumpy, because your the fourth person in the last two days to tell me that.

Road trip to Oregon next year? I'll have to check with the Banana Republic Minister of Finance.
Yellowstone is on the way.

Not good, too darn hard on the kids. I am sorry to hear it. Darned hard on you. That is a very tough break. Every bit as bad as anything I have had happen to me, seems to me, though of course I don't know. Maybe worse.
Spent some time looking down a gun barrel myself, but am still here. Some live, some don't. I have no idea why one lives and one dies. It for sure has nothing to do with how good a man you are, what you deserve, that stuff.

Yeah, sometimes I wonder why I think so much more about that stuff than I used to. The dreams aren't so darned bloody these days, though. Those ones that happened night after night have gone away quite a bit these days.

If I can't make fun about me and act like the tough guy I could never get a word out. Dunno, I am a pretty darn lucky guy. Amazing luck. Really.
