What posts I've talked about my brother in, in the past have all been inflamatory. But well.. at least in some ways things have changed.
I joined the Navy. He joined the Army.
He's now currently serving over in Iraq. He's now risking his life for this country's causes in a way that I really won't be doing it. He's personally out there, on the ground. Yes we all risk our lives in some ways, but I admit that normally the Army, and Marines are much more exposed than us living in the cramped spaces of our ships.
My brother and I still have our problems. Yeah we can't fix up all the built up angst over just a short time, but I do respect him and what he's doing now. I at least want some things posted, showing that now I at least have a good bit of respect for him.
So we are now brother in arms. We serve in different ways, but we both serve. And if I ever hear anyone call him a bullet catcher whos not military associated, I will personally go and kick the royal shit out of them. Only those of us in service are allowed such things, so damned well remember that.
