Blog Review: Service member in Iraq
Life in Iraq: "The way back is as much psychological and emotional as it is physical. We go, the parts of me, body, mind, and heart, like a sad parade. Body first, heart last. It being dragged behind like an untrained puppy. Soon he will again sleep and become easier to carry around."
As someone who would like to be a better writer, this Captain reminds me of just how far I have to go. This Captain in Iraq, from a small Central California town, is now being hosted by the Fresno Bee. It was just started in December, so there are only a few posts, but I hope that people will support him by reading his blog. There is no political reference, and really ammunition for both sides in his account. This should be read for an understanding of what is being experienced right now, by one man.
