Thank you for the nice comments Dan, Anne-Marie, and Marty. Unfortunately, I know I'm not in this boat alone. I know there are many others, including on this forum, that have experienced the same or similar circumstances. I remember the advice I got from a commander, mentor and friend of mine, Bart Owens, right after I got the news about Brandon: "Pursue happiness, they fought and died so that you could. Anything else would be a slap in the face." Bart was awarded the bronze star in Viet Nam and Brandon was awarded it in Iraq. The words are often hard to live up to, but I believe them to be correct. I think it's a responsibility we all have and an opportunity that was given to us by all those who have made the sacrifices.
