My most recent Tweet: "I read this story every 9/11. It never fails to give me chills - and hope for us all. Semper fi, Dave. http://www.slate.com/id/2227969/"
It is a fantastic tale, that of SSgt. Dave Karnes, a once and future Marine, fantastic in every sense of the word, and certainly one of the few good things that came out of that black day.
Every 9/11. It's a weird thought, that it'll always be with us. Such an innocuous date. Mid-September, schools are in session, leaves are turning red, football is about to start. It'll always be with us.
