"People pick the Army- they become mechanics, water-supply specialists, cooks, clerks- but the Infantry is different. The Infantry picks the man: men who do poorly in math, excel at athletics, drink alot, love their mothers, fear their fathers; men who have something to prove or feel they have already proven it all. We were both proud and ashamed of what we were. The stepchildren of the Army, Infantrymen are like guard dogs at a rich man's house. When people come to visit, the media, the USO, they lock us in the garage and tell us not to bark, but when night falls and there is a noise outside, everyone is glad we are there. And that is what we do, guard against bumps in the night" John Crawford- "The Last True Story I'll Ever Tell"..This profile was edited with MySpace Profile Editor MySpace Profile EditorI'm pretty laid back; get along with most everyone. From Tacoma, Wa, graduated from Pacific Lutheran University, ran some track, played some football, had too much fun, graduated with a business degree. Went to Liberia (West Africa) a couple of times. Joined the Army to do my part. Went to Infantry School (OSUT), Airborne School (BAC), was placed in the 82nd Airborne Division. Just over 2 months later I experience my first of many VB-IEDs (car bomb) in Iraq. Made it back home and came down on orders for a paper shuffeling job in a command that doesn't want it's indiviuals to have their own websites associating with said command... probably because myspace is so evil and makes it too easy to meet people in the area
