Afghanistan Through My Eyes

OMG...I'm still waiting.

This waiting is driving me crazy. I am trying to rationalize this is what it's like for a soldier to get their orders.

Hurry up and wait...I'm sure someone in the armed forces came up with this saying.

Think about what it must have been like waiting on the ship before they stormed Omaha Beach.

I know that a lot of battles are predicated upon the weather.
Napoleon waited one extra day and that was the end of his career. That night it snowed and he couldn't move his men for months.

While I'm waiting to get to Afghanistan,
Soldiers are waiting to come home.

Some of them will do anything to pass the time faster, better and with a little fun.
