Inspiration For The Lucky One
At the time, the news from Iraq was dominating the front pages.
Because my town is virtually surrounded by military bases
(including Camp Lejeune, Fort Bragg, Seymour Johnson AFB, Cherry
Point Marine Corp Air Station, and the New River Air Station),

and focus on their families or the struggles they faced upon
returning home. In addition, I have dozens of neighbors who have
spent time in either Iraq or Afghanistan.
