| Life -- Civilian vs Military *The count of the Fallen in Irag has breached 2,500 people.* I thought that I would share this with you all...when you feel like you are having a rough day, think of these: Your alarm goes off; you hit the snooze and sleep for another 10 minutes. --He stays up for days on end. _____________________________________________ You take a warm shower to help you wake up. --He goes days or weeks without running water. _____________________________________________ You complain of a "headache", and call in sick. --He gets shot at, as others are hit, and keeps moving forward. _____________________________________________ You make sure you're cell phone is in your pocket. --He clutches the cross hanging on his chain next to his dog tags. ____________________________________________ You talk trash on your "buddies" that aren't with you. --He knows he may not see some of his buddies again. ____________________________________________ You complain about how hot it is. --He wears his heavy gear, not daring to take off his helmet to wipe his brow. _____________________________________________ You go out to lunch, and complain because the restaurant got your order wrong. --He does not get to eat today. _____________________________________________ You make bed and wash your clothes. --He wears the same things for months, but makes sure his weapons are clean. _____________________________________________ You are angry because your class ran 5 minutes over. --He is told he will be held an extra 2 months. _____________________________________________ You call your girlfriend and set a date for that night. --He waits for the mail to see if there is a letter from home. _____________________________________________ You hug and kiss your girlfriend/boyfriend, like you do everyday. --He holds his letter close and smells his Love's perfume. _____________________________________________ You roll your eyes as a baby cries. --He gets a letter with pictures of his new child, and wonders if they'll ever meet. ____________________________________________ You criticize your government, and say that war never solves anything. --He sees the innocent tortured and killed by their own government and remembers why he is fighting. ____________________________________________ You see only what the media wants you to see. --He sees the bodies lying around him. ___________________________________________ You stay at home and watch TV. --He takes whatever time he is given to call and write home, sleep, and eat. ___________________________________________ You crawl into your bed, with down pillows, and try to get comfortable. --He crawls under a tank for shade and a 5 minute nap, only to be woken by gun fire. ___________________________________________ You sit there and judge him, saying the world is a worse place because of men like him. --If only there were more men like him.
