I AM GOING TO IRAQ
To all of my friends that really care about me I am very sorry for what I have done to you by signing up for the army. I did this for reasons that I do not really feel all that comfortable telling you. I may be able to tell someday If I do not comeback in a bodybag.(I must tell myself every night before I go to sleep because it is my number one fear.) I worry that after I ship out I will never see any of you again. I guarantee that I will do everything in my power to come back to you all alive but I don't think I have control over that situation. I feel going to Iraq is something I have to do like it is a right of passage for me. I know that none of you will understand this and that you will think it is stupid but that is how i feel. If someone would like me to explain the reasons I feel I have to go to Iraq just ask me and i will try to explain them to you as best I can>
