If you look at the MSM you would not have a clue that there are combat soldiers who are fighting and dying every day, still. This post is about how these two wars are effecting me and my family.

I arrived at the Indiana State Fairgrounds at around 9:00 a.m., waited in line for about an hour, then made my way to the grandstand. It was an overcast, drizzly sky, but that was not going to deter me.
