Young man, its hard to say So use to this person I've known him a long time He's so far away While I'm still right here Doing what I do Proof and pictures Memory Its hard to see Its not like it was I won't ever be again Simple isn't what it was He's a man now Stronger molded into something else Killer, defender, man of loalty Given orders by a sargeant he does not know To do things against his personal feelings Hes a solider in his line of work A member of a family A member of a team He's definitely a man and not a boy This solider is my brother And I'm proud to know Hatered and lies go hand-in-hand, while love is always truth. |

My best friend is a former Marine,,,my daddy was a Navy vet,,,,,I never knew the pain of having them away on a mission, or stationed in some place i can't pronounce,,,but, I do see the pride they each have,,,in their branch of service, their country, and all they protect,,,,,I too send a thank you to your brother,,and all the brothers in arms that keep us whole,,, Michelle I wish all could find the true happiness I have found,,in the eyes of Mike |

It changes you but never seems to change the forces as they break the next one and rebuild them as they want.. The world becomes a different person and your family are those that rely on you to be where you should be and do what you are trained to do. Your real family become those you have a chance to visit. Interesting read. I joined the Royal Navy when I was 16 and I can see the unexplored words. Dave |
