Here is this week's question:
In light of 11.11.11 and Veteran’s Day tell us about your favorite solider and how he or she is saving the world. Fictional or real life.
Ooh, a personal question! That's a nice change. My favorite veteran is certainly my dad. He fought in the Vietnam War (Army) and then went back into the Army a bit later in life. They actually sent him to Hawaii (is that a great place to be stationed or what?). He doesn't really talk about being in the war that much, but I know that he is a trained sniper, marksmen instruction, and helicopter pilot repairman. I'm not a big supporter of our current war, however I most definitely support the troops themselves.
