So I'm in the Exchange checking out the supply of laptops and a guy overhears me mention to the salesman that I'm headed for a sandy spot. Turns out he just got back from over there and was full of useful advise.
Moments later another guy asks me where he can get a cup of coffee. Turns out he's just back too.
Young guys back from two different places. "How's morale?" I asked one. He gave me the thumbs down. "It's boring over there." He replied.
Boredom was his main complaint.
I know it's not that way everywhere - or anywhere all the time.
There's a bit of some feeling I can't explain associated with getting ready to deploy as the anniversary of 911 draws near. Perhaps an extra edge to the resolve, maybe something that makes it a little easier to talk to the kids (from my perspective at least, nothing lessens their burden).
The post below this one is from the archives. I wrote it some time last summer. The title a simple question, the post a simple answer.
I think the question could be asked of me now - has in fact. And I realize the answer still works.
Busy days - will try to get something new up soon.
