Some folks are born, made to wave the flag . . .
My brother has signaled his intention to enlist in the Army Reserves as a Combat Engineer after he graduates in December. For those who don't know, a Combat Engineer is an Infantry grunt, who also carries 80 lbs in tools and explosives into combat.
I'm not sure how I feel about this, but I suspect my feelings on the matter are mostly selfish, and generally unworthy.
My sister is going through some sort of crisis in St. Louis. She has a really thick central Maryland accent, with 7 years of Missouri on top of it, so I only understand one word in three over a cell phone connection. Some sort of falling out with friends and dissatisfaction with work. She is talking about moving back to Maryland.
