My girlfriend just got "the" phonecall from her son tonight ... he's leaving at 4:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. Since he is a Captain in the USMC, I guess I don't need to explain where he's going, or why we are worried.

I'm not going to go off on what I think about the war ... or what I think about the people who are sending him. I'll argue my positions on that some other time. See, this isn't about whether I agree with the war (I do, but the timing is suspect at best) or like Bush (I don't) - this is about what it feels like in your gut when you know someone you love is going, you can't take their place, and there ain't a damn thing you can do about it. It's too bad his place couldn't be taken by some of the folks who seem so excited at the prospect of the war, so convinced of the righteousness of this cause - or by an overweight 50 year old arthritic athsmatic ex-sailor who'd go in a minute if the kid could stay home.

I didn't feel like this when he was in Afghanistan - and since he'd sailed off on a WestPac in August, 2001, he was one of the first in. Sure - we were scared shitless, but why he was there was crystal clear. I don't think I'd feel this way if he was going off to look for Osama, either. This shit ... this shit leaves a very foul taste in my mouth and a very tense spot in my gut that I don't like.

Please don't hand me any patriotic happy-crappy. I spent too many years in uniform myself to buy that stuff. He's doing what he wants to do, and I am as proud of him as I can be. I know he and his men will do everything that's asked of them or die trying - problem is, that "die trying" ain't just hollow rhetoric now. I just wish a whole lot more of the sorry sons of bitches in D.C. - male and female, black and white, Democrats and Republicans - had to hold a Marine's mother in their arms as they made this decision. Not just think about a Marine's mother, but be there when she get the world.

So ... say a prayer, think a positive thought, sacrifice a virgin for him, whatevery your beliefs allow you to do, would you?
