It's an amazing world. Yesterday I ran into a young warrior already returned from combat in Baghdad. A few weeks ago he was exchanging gunfire with the enemy. Now he has a new apartment in Orange County, CA and he was out getting himself a vacuum to keep it clean. In the short time we spoke he didn't have much to say about the war. He did say he'd traveled and fought with several of the embedded reporters, Ollie North among others. Ollie, he says, tended to hang out with the high ranking officers rather than with the young enlisted men.
