Happy New Year! I've been rehabilitating from bilateral leg wounds for a year and a half, and I just found this site. Luckily for me all these helpful organizations reach out and touch you. hearts and minds! Thank you all so much for all your help! Having been working and visiting at both NNMC Bethesda and WRAMC I can tell you first hand that the troop surge is working and we're seeing a lot fewer warriors coming in. I'm proud to be an American these days because no matter where I travel people will go out of their way to shake my hand and tell me thanks! Thank you America from the bottom of my heart, without your support it would be an entirely different life for me and my family. I pray we see this through. The Iraqi people aren't much different than we are, they work in shops, fields, drive trucks, etc, and they deserve a chance to live in peace. Let us honor those who paid the ultimate price and gave their lives for freedom and see this through. ~~Michael ------/Cpl/USMC, Tyler
