I'll monitor that thread. Wasn't trying to seem bitchy... just that if my CO had told me that my loved ones were essentially as screwed as I would be if I bought it, I'd have been a bit put out.

War isn't about counting beans... it's about preserving a home that, even if you don't get to go back to it, you know in your last moment that it will still be there for the ones you went off for in the first place.

Or maybe that's just me.
