Wow! Who would have thought that after nearly 30 years of law enforcement I would find myself in the Army? To tell you the truth I am not in the Army, but I am embedded with the 1/63 CAB, 2 HBCT, 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley, Kansas. Either way, I can't believe that God has called me, at this age, to go into a combat zone with a bunch of young warriors to do what I do best with such significant consequences. My job is to determine who is financing, making, placing and detonating IED's that injury and kill our soldiers and innocent Iraqi citizens. While the thought of me in an army uniform at this stage in my life seems to be somewhat humorous, the consequences of my doing my job well are not. God has given me the opportunity to help save lives. I have never felt part of such a significant mission in all my life. Nor have I been around so many great Americans. These young soldiers are absolutely amazing. It is my prayer that God will use me to save both physical & spiritual lives & to do everything in my power to bring our young soldiers home safely. They inspire me.They are dedicated, tough, intelligent patriots who choose to serve their country despite the ugliness of politics, the criticisms of the ungrateful, or the risk to their own personal safety. Everyone of these young men & women deserve our undying grattitude and respect. Please let them know when ever you see one of our finest how much you appreciate the freedom they so valiantly defend.
