It is a disturbing image...it was meant to be. I suppose, by it's very nature, Death of the Young and Innocent, it must be unsettling. Best Wishes, Traveller

Oh Gosh, I come here to play and have fun and smile. Life itself is too sad to be reminded of it here too. I don't know you and I only hope this was not your son. Best Wishes for a new President of the US

Pisst, I'll add something else to this, if possible. A lot of people are arguing the war and this and that...most of us, even those like myself who have been thick in the heat of battle...are full of it, full of cr*p...lol As the 116th post in a long thread, I posted this image to make what people were talking about, real to them...because it is real. Interestingly, that thread just stopped. Nary another post. Hummmmm Best Wishes, Traveller

Thoughtful and sad

I can see the repetition in this Traveller, both real and implied. The sad thing is that this has repeated more than three thousand times and continues. We have to do better with understanding and tolerance and not fall on power and 'might'? Good capture and interpretation Traveller ~ Regards Bob.

(from an argument elsewhere) ...so I'm out and about yesterday and my work is over by 8:35am... Be that as it may, I stop for breakfast because I'm out Palm Springs way and don't want to fight the inbound freeway...and there it is, a shrine to a fresh faced dead marine, some plaques and a picture of the mother meeting President Bush seem poor compensation. I speak to the mother, it is terrible. I have spoken of my pride of my Training Time as a Senior Drill Instructor at Ft Campbell and at having never lost a man on patrol in the Nam. Maybe the troops are trained better, maybe not...from my casual interaction with Army and Marines going and back from Iraq I can only Say...! They are kids. They are children for all intents and purposes. I'm not bagging on them, but they are no different than when I was training them. I was at a Panda Express and met a Marine as I think about it...he was so gung-ho I sat him down and had a chat with him it worried me so much. But they are kids. I take every dead soldier personally. I am not rational over this and I admit it. In any case, as to my torn assunder heart yesterday: http://www.pbase.com/cslr_challenge/image/73202242 Sometimes these kids, they just can't make it work out. Best Wishes, Traveller
