“There was a technical term I had learned in grade school that defined such defective thinking… it was called hubris… that tendency towards excessive pride or self-confidence. Yup, that was me.

My platoon and I had developed a rhythm that we fell into each evening. We spent a few hours together as a team polishing everything th...at could be polished.

We had finally been issued real pointers and we learned real quickly that we were expected to treat them like favored children. Where we went… it went. When it needed cleaning… we cleaned it. If it didn’t need cleaning… we checked to make sure it was clean anyway. A pointer was an interesting weapon.MoreLessRead More Read Less
