Protect your Country, Forget your Family

The words reason and logic do not often apply when you talk about the military. This '>story from the Chicago Tribune certainly exhibits that. I love the fact that this soldiers emergency didn't "rise to the level of emergency leave." So this guy is in Iraq, protecting our country, but when it comes to his family well that is just ridiculous to think he might want to see his newborn through a rough birth. Oh well, I guess he is better off getting shot at in Iraq.
