To Afghanistan and back...

I traveled to Afghanistan for a few months to join the Division Pathfinders of Fort Drum's 10th Mountain Division.  I saw god and bad, little and much, but I choose not to show those pictures here.  I will show two to pay my respects and honor a fallen patriot though.  Shortly before leaving Afghanistan we received a rocket attack that impacted just outside our building on our base and as everyone took to running towards the bunkers 6 of our pathfinders were hit with shrapnel, rocks, and explosive blast wounding all but ultimately ending the life of our 1ST Sergeant.  Here are a couple of pictures of our memorial ceremony.
