you best protect ya neck

this is just random and idk. just saying what i’ll never be able to say directly.

i’ve been seeing and reading about afghanistan in the news a lot. i’ve been thinking about you a lot lately because of it. i’m scared that one day one of the KIA names is gonna be yours. i almost feel like i’m expecting it because your job is so damn dangerous. you used to always tell me that you weren’t worried because you knew the marines put you through everything possible to prepare you and you believed in yourself. i don’t even know which part of that shithole country you’re in so it just adds to the mystery. CG, i’m so thankful for the time i had you in my life, and i wish i could just put an entire shield around you.

my brother goes over there this month, and my thoughts are really just consumed and worried about you instead.
