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.

Drum roll, please!

The votes are in!
The winning caption, by a nose, was number five, "'Skull caps are the new ski mask in 2006', says Hamas style consultant Adimi Soltan."
Also receiving multiple votes was number nine, "WAR IS PEACE. FREEDOM IS SLAVERY. IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. KFC IS FINGER LICKIN' GOOD."
Congratulations, as well, to seven, eight, and thirteen, who each garnered a vote.

Personally, I loved them all! Thanks to everyone who played for enlivening several of my days.
