i have my best friends 2 brothers over there, and my best friend is leaving the day after thanksgiving, all serving their second tour.
All 3 are in the Army,
Michael, my best friend is 26 and already a Captain, hoping to be Major by the time he makes it back. Thats insanely unheard of. He'll be over 100+ soldiers most of which will be older than him. He's the guy who clears the air above the fisters coordinates, making sure that nothing will be in or around the area that the "insert weapons here" are going.
I could only imagine the decision making process there being INSANE. Having to factor in where everything is in land and sky, collateral damage, human loss etc.
He's pretty damned smart though and a GREAT human being...so i have full faith in him.
thats really awesome. it sucks that hes gonna leave though. tell him we all give him luck and our love. he a brave dude. im so fuckin scared of war, but i might consider joining the army and being a sniper in like 10 years (cause im only 13)
