Today I write this from Cyprus, returning home from Afghanistan where I was a Marine pilot. 5 days ago my close friend and ramp gunner was killed by a sniper as he pulled a wounded Royal Marine onto our helicopter. 2 days ago I found a letter to his parents in his bunk that said how he felt he’d let himself down by not saving anyone’s life anyone the 9 months we were here. The soldier he died helping is today doing well and should return to his new-born son soon. MMT
