my son-in-law and daughter came down here last night for my photography show. he looks so thin and gaunt.
he has PTSD and is getting very little care for it. he did stuff during his first tour that has changed him forever. he was stationed in Kuwait and went into Iraq on "sorties" but now he will be IN Iraq all of the time. he's so gentle and kind. seems like such a youngster to me. he's ten years younger than my daughter, but he's not a kid now.
his daughter will know now that he's gone. she was too little during his first tour to really get it. she saw a battle on the news, before they got it switched, and she said, "that's war".......
i mentioned to someone today that i've become so jaded with local, state and federal government that whenever i hear something bad, i'm like "that figures"......this war was a mistake before it ever got off the ground.
i'm floored by what the man said about the torture and killing......ewwwwwwwww. makes chills run over me......as long as it isn't their family.......it's okay.
