supposed to run 25 min today...will try later.This anniversary always bring me down...hard to get up the gumption to get the job done...I remember specifically today being overseas at work on the military base in Spain shortly before the war was official,boats and planes FULL of soldiers stopped here on their way to the desert.This kid who came in to buy a pearl necklace for his mom...he looked no older than 15 but had to be older...he was near tears trying to pick the perfect necklace to send home for his mom...he finally picked the one he thought was perfect and handed me a letter and the box and asked if I could mail it home for him...this kid in his desert khakis on his way to fight for his country trembled as he handed me the letter and asked me to please not forget....I have never forgotten him...or any of the others...and I will never forget this day...I will always remember...united we stand.
