Another story that needs to be told is about a little girl in Ramadi.  Our company came across an Iraqi girl with severe burns all over her body from and un-war related injury.  We took her to the hospital to have her treated the best way possible.

 

While in Iraq, I learned to appreciate things more. I saw first hand how others live and feel blessed to live as comfortable and free as I do. My time there also influenced the way I view people that I meet. I have a much lower tolerance for self-absorbed ignorant people who think that they are in any way better then others and/or have opinions about things not based on fact or self-experience.

 

I think that the next president should see that the job is completed in Iraq.

 

My advice for others of you out there wondering how to best show support for the troops? Learn more about current conflicts before you make a judgment about what’s going on. Talk to people in the military, research who our enemies are and why they’re fighting us.
