A Place to Talk About War

I would like to hear from soldiers who have been in combat situations, from their families, or from others interested in this conversation. I am a graduate student interested in war rhetoric. I have no preset agenda: I simply want to listen, to learn, and to be supportive.

Name:
Location: Texas, United States

Married, two kids. Worked in the defense industry for 20 years before taking a different path. I'll be starting my dissertation on the rhetoric of war in a few months. This semester I am teaching Freshman Composition. I DON'T CARE ABOUT BLOGGERS' SPELLING, PUNCTUATION, OR ANY OTHER GRAMMAR MATTERS--I JUST WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU.

Sorry for the silence

I'm traveling a lot in June, so posts will be sporadic (as you've noticed). I should be back to a regular schedule in July.

If you haven't already, read the comments on the post below, then go to Nate's site and leave a kind word.

Here's something you can think about for a while: how will we know when we've "won" in Iraq? How will we know when we've won the War on Terror? All comments welcome on what "winning" looks like to you.
