  It is an veritable honour and a privilege to be educated and enlightened by the insights and experiences that you have taken it upon yourself to generously share with such regularity. This is, by far, my favourite account on Twitter. Thank you, sir, for your continued service.

  I've never escorted any remains back home but we went as close as we could get to the aircraft that took our brothers home and saluted their flag draped coffins as they were carried into the cargo area at Baghdad International Airport.
