macelena 1,070 Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) They got his legs, but he kept his balls Here at the forum, muesli is also going back after being WIA, i myself could once meet a Marine who lets a foot to a AP mine in Bosnia, 1995, and he is still teaching in the Marine School. Or another paratrooper,a sargent whose vehicle was struck by IED, was burnt and lost one of his men, afghanistan 2006, and he is back to work with his new face. For these people, it is to hard to recover, but they keep struggling just as in the battlefield. The least they can earn is our respect, and gratitude. Our help will be OK, but we should take care not to offence by acting like they were useless or unable to get rolling by themselves Edited February 23, 2009 by macelena Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
