10 Years ago today my buddies and I put a match in a Lemon Poppyseed cake from an MRE inside a rundown whare house in the streets of Fallujah. Changed me forever.

My 90 year old dad is having a Marine Birthday Ball celebration at the farm. He's a vet of WWII, Korea and Vietnam. Tomorrow, he's going to drive his WWII Jeep in the Dallas Veteran's Day Parade. They wanted him on the reviewing stand, but all he wants to do is "drive his jeep in the parade." We'll see who wins the battle of wills.

Semper Fi, Dad.

Jacob was in my platoon in Iraq. Was there when he lost his leg. We are good friends to this day. He's great man and is doing well for himself now. He married one of the Navy doctors that helped put him back together after he was wounded.

Hey Brother!

Man, I really wanted too. Just couldn't make it up. Been talking to $ a lot and he told me it was a great time. All day Saturday I regretted not making it happen.

Yeah it was weird seeing everyone after so long...I don't think we will wait as long for the next one..maybe just 5 years this time
I understand though kids and responsibilities make it tough
