“I don’t believe this is a work you choose, instead the work chooses you. I am just answering the call to bear arms—boldly and courageously serving in the fray.

I have also suffered under their weight. Know that we know! But, in the spirit of progress and hope, know that we also know the sound and the feeling of Freedom!”
