I knew and saw what was the price we paid after twenty years of combat operations.

Sun Lit Days, Green Lit Nights

Where I live the gas prices displayed on the stations illuminated signs are in green. You could write a whole story based on how those green light prices make you more miserable everyday as those prices go higher. In fact I just realized today most ATMs flash a green light when being used by a customer.

Military Has Me Singing
A little while ago at work I had to give a training over stress-management. To be clear and obvious, I am in the Navy. It is no secret that the military is one of the most stressful jobs in the country followed by physicians, personal assistants, and first responders. As reported by Military.com in, “Military Deaths by Suicide jumped 25% at end of 2020,” that by June 2020 128 deaths occurred by suicide. Keep in mind that was before the pandemic. It is my personal belief that more occurred that were not reported. No, I am not a conspiracy theorist, but it seems that I hear of a new one almost every month from the grape vine, because someone who knows someone, who is on that ship.

Subutai, Mongol "dog of war"
Although there can be few people who have not heard of Genghis Khan, the Mongol emperor who swept all before him as he built a vast Asian empire in the 13th century, the same cannot be said of Subutai, who was one of the Khan’s feared “dogs of war”. However, without Subutai’s leadership and tactical genius it is quite possible that Genghis Khan would have achieved very little. The story of Subutai, who was arguably one of the greatest generals of all time, therefore deserves to be better known.
