Yuppers, you get it. Sarge was a great diverter of where you were, he had this, from birth, way of making you stop your hell, and divert your attention to a different path. After awhile I didn't even need words, his voice was the cheese at the end of the maze.
I was going to write "Billy Jack III", and called California, and spoke to Tom Laughlin's p.r. man. What a richard he was.
Anyway I was in Florida at the time, mad and angry, and hanging out with vets that I helped through Sarges assistance, and asked Sarge would he want me to write, "Sarge, after the dust settles"
He was all for it, and I have so many outlines, but whenever I started to pick it up, bam,,,,,,,,,flashback haven.
My enemies watched the nam footage on the news, I did too, even closer, because they copy catted what happened, only with drugs and more want to have fun, at the faces of the frightened.
Ergo, couldn't do it. I wanted somehow to thank Sarge, in the biggest way I could, but couldn't. But I think our bond stated more then I allow myself to accept, as far as who I was for him. I was the female counterpart to fixing the brain, as far as we could take it, at least.
And the one who let everyone know, the mind may have been damaged, but the soul was whiter then ever, and let them know they did have a purpose on this planet. Sarge may have known him, I don't know.
But for me, I do not, and am afraid if I did read his words, they would trigger far too much, so yeah, as tough as I am, I am a scare dee cat when it comes to triggers.
During my angry days, I had a knack for getting myself in the middle of very violent people, Sarge, had access to my where abouts, through me, and sent in the troops on occasions. I don't know how many times he said you almost bought it that time, to me. I always said, nah, just stirring the pot, my spiritual guards would never let me leave, I know from experience.
Thank you for your words, and seeing Sarge through my eyes, and yours.
That's all I wanted. Blessings, he smiles and lets me know now you get my words. He'll be hanging with ya,,,
