Some day we will all join those who are serving so gallantly now and have preceded us on battlefields from Gettysburg to Wanat. We will gather inside a firebase to open a case of C rations with every box peaches and pound cake. We will join with a band of brothers to recount the experience of serving something greater than ourselves. I believe in my very soul that the almightily reserves a corner of heaven, probably around a perpetual campfire where some day we can meet and embrace all of the band of brothers throughout the ages to tell our stories while envious standers-by watch and wonder how horrific and incendiary the crucible of violence must have been to bring such a disparate assemblage so close to the hand of God.

As I get older and my time draws nearer, I can easily picture opening a can of ham and limas ( is there anything else?), looking for my bottle of Tobasco in a flight suit pocket and wondering which of my cherished friends will be the first to say, "There I was .......".
Soon enough old friends

Haven't heard from Paul Moore in a while. Hope he's okay, he's really getting up there now...
