War has a tremendous price for the warrior. Men see their closes friends, their brothers in arms, breath
their last precious breath as they give their lives in the name of service to
their country. The female soldier who the world often views as a mother and a
caretaker raises their hand to bring death upon the enemy. Many read books and watch movies that glorify
the act of war and the moments of unrestrained violence, but those who have
experienced this reality know well that art falls short of the reality of life –
when it comes to war.
This article in The Canberratimes is poignant and this great
warrior is brave to tell his story. http://www.canberratimes.com.au/national/home-safe-but-left-torn-by-the-horrors-of-war-20120921-26bz8.html
