Cristina's cousin Trip (John Rogers III) is a captain in the Army. Even though he's a Florida State fan (always gotta give him a hard time about that) he's always been a great guy. He served in Iraq and recently came home. He's in the crazy home stretch of planning his wedding in Seattle, but somehow found the time to write this article for the Washington Post. There are several people on both sides of our family serving in the armed forces, so I feel it's appropriate to share one family member's feelings and conclusions about a war that is, to say the least, controversial.

All I can think to say is.... Wow!!
What a great article. He sounds like a truly good man. Love to all, Mom
Thanks for sharing this with me. i will have to read it again to fully appreciate the impact of what he has had to deal with. I try to envision Steven going through some of this and it is overwhelming, to say the least. i don't think steven made the wrong decision about enlisting, but I hope he has the strength to make the right decisions about his future when the time comes.
