A Place to Talk About War

I would like to hear from soldiers who have been in combat situations, from their families, or from others interested in this conversation. I am a graduate student interested in war rhetoric. I have no preset agenda: I simply want to listen, to learn, and to be supportive.

Name:
Location: Texas, United States

Married, two kids. Worked in the defense industry for 20 years before taking a different path. I'll be starting my dissertation on the rhetoric of war in a few months. This semester I am teaching Freshman Composition. I DON'T CARE ABOUT BLOGGERS' SPELLING, PUNCTUATION, OR ANY OTHER GRAMMAR MATTERS--I JUST WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU.

Government Matrix Program

I received this link through an email, and I encourage you to check it out. If you are fond of your privacy and wary of the government compiling more information about you to share across the country, then this should be of interest to you.
Note to my conservative readers: don't be alarmed that the message comes from the ACLU; they work for your rights, as well as the rights of people you oppose. Even if you hate them, you owe it to yourself to watch this clip and then click for more information.
