Every now and then there comes a time in an individuals life when they must choose the lesser of two evils to accomplish something that they themselves set in motion. I joined the US Army knowing full well that I would one day deploy to a foreign country to fight for someone else's "just cause." I accept the fact that i am going away for 15 monthes to a strange world that some compare to "Amish Country" just to bring democracy to the far corner of this country. I guess what I am trying to say is that now that i only have 3 days until this nightmare comes to life, i have a very big choice to make, should i do the right thing and Deploy with the men i have spent the last 15 monthes with, or should i go back home to the people i grew up with? To most of you the choice is clear, just deploy and get it done with, which is exactly what i am doing... oh well... for some reason i just felt compelled to write a small little rant to release some repressed feelings... thanks, Doc Young
