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.

Contest: Name That Picture


I'm running a contest that is open to all readers of this blog. Take a good look at the picture above, copied from the Greenville News. Your job is to come up with an appropriate caption and post it in the comments. Let your creative juices flow. Humor is welcomed; multiple submissions will be accepted.

My spouse and I will pick the winning caption, which will be announced at a future date. If we get enough interesting submissions, we may allow a "Readers' Choice," as well.

Have fun!
