Thanks Mystic... I very much appreciate it. It's very, very seldom that anyone will say my father (or any of my family who are in the military) are good men. It doesn't seem to be politically correct anymore. There's a lot of peace protests and such, and I'm all for peace, but apparently being for peace also means you are required to be against our troops, at least where I'm living. My neighborhood has these giant cardboard yellow ribbons saying "Support Our Troops" and they are always getting vandalized by students. One of the reasons I had to leave university was because the peace coalition was everywhere and I felt very intimidated and triggered by them a lot of the time.
Anyways thanks again and I wish you all the best.
