A classmate and colleague of my wife, Lt. Col. David E. Cabrera, was killed recently in Afghanistan Dr. Cabrera, a licensed clinical social worker and assistant professor of family medicine at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, was stationed in Afghanistan's capitol city, Kabul, when his NATO convoy was attacked. It was an IED. Dr. Cabrera is survived by a wife and four children. My wife says Dr. Cabrera was a terrific guy, a caring human being, and "an absolute whiz" in the doctoral-level statistics courses. The governor of Maryland ordered flags flown at half staff in honor of Dr. Cabrera. http://tinyurl.com/87qzj8a |

I mean, we all know the disdain he has for enlisted men and women... Just ask John... |

According to his comments, I was 'stupid', because I let myself get drafted. My disdain is for the military establishment generally, the "corporation," so to speak, and not those who wear the uniform, with certain exceptions to the latter, you being one of them. Since the end of World War II, I believe the military establishment's primary goal has been to perpetuate itself, to keep as many men and women in uniform as possible. Dr. Cabrera chose a soldier's life and took a soldier's chances. According to my wife, he was a terrific psychotherapist, something the military is in great need of these days. |

I don't "generally" say much of anything about "enlisted men and their families." You really, truly should seek out a therapist. You are completely ****ed between the ears. |
