Not too long ago I went from a crewman to a crew cheif not too many PFC's get that chance straight out of schools. But it dawns on my that we're be going to Afganistan soon 6 to 7 months from now still uncertan, as a leader of Marines LCPL and above its my job to put my own life on the line to make sure they come back home alive. A responsibility not too many are too able take but I don't mind cause if I know I can bring two back alive I know I've done my job. So my friends I ask you to pray not only for me but my troops and their familys to give strength and comfort. I thank you very much blessing and semper fidelis.
