Oldman, I are too.
Thank you for your kind sentiments.
So........OK.......I'll check into getting it published. I still want to include the second tour though. Not because I want a fat book, but the dichotomy of the two tours so perfectly illustrates the nature of the war as I knew it. The second spin in the cycle was in many ways as surreal as 'Apocalypse Now' and in others turned into the longest 'Ho Li [bleep]!' moment of my life. Yin and yang, all under one spread as it were.

PS: It's sorta already been "published" here on the 'Fire I guess. Don't care about making money from it, hell, it was 3 hots and a cot + a monthly check. Lot of you fellas already 'paid' for it as I see it. I suppose as well I should let the copyright cat out of the bag. Done deal.
