Another book or a guest essay. Thanks. BTW what is the new name of Ft. Hood? My family had a connection to that base back in the late 50's. They had a concession on the base when the PX allowed civilians to operate businesses on base. We lived in Killeen but by the time you arrived I was in Cincinnati in college. Incredible life changing times. And you're so right about choosing to do the Right Thing...it can feel like dying with no rescue in sight. Sometimes unlike the movie rescue shows up much later.

Fort Hood, the third-largest U.S. military base, was renamed Fort Cavazos to honor a Hispanic American Army leader rather than a Confederate general. The base is now named after Gen. Richard Edward Cavazos, the first Hispanic American four-star Army general and brigadier general.
