Oh, idk..
Actually, The Wife and I are talking about picking it all up and moving out to the pacific northwest, the main obstacle has always been how completely and hopelessly southern I am. We're only in kentucky because I wouldn't go any further. It's hard to discount a culture that engenders that sort of devotion and...I guess if I'm honest, fear? Like I could never be anything other than out of place if I left. All I ever have to do is open my mouth to prove that I'm "other"...anywhere else.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
