This Is Why We Miss Robin Williams
Wednesday, August 13th, 2014We usually don’t comment on the passing of celebrities, but Robin Williams was a friend and supporter of the Military who provided joy to thousands of personnel overseas through his USO appearances. He also had class, as you can see in this video.

Remember the Men of Extortion 17
Wednesday, August 6th, 2014I can’t believe it’s been three years since I heard the news about the crash of Extortion 17, a US Army CH-47 carrying 38 souls: 17 US Navy SEALs, 5 NSW Fleet Techs, 2 USAF Pararescumen, 1 USAF Combat Controller, 5 US Army National Guard and Army Reserve Aviators, 7 Afghan Commandos, and 1 Afghan interpreter. Also on board was a single NSW Working Dog.
I live in Virginia’s Tidewater which was home port for many of those men. I’m not sure the town will ever really get over the tragedy. There are a lot of families, friends, and teammates who bear the loss every day. Only one day a year everyone else thinks about these men and their sacrifice. I think that’s selfish. I don’t expect you to think of them everyday unless they were yours, but don’t make their passing into something any more special than any other death. This obsession has trivialized their passing as much as it does every other death. Each and every loss has meaning and every loss is mourned. I challenge you to look past this one day a year and this group of men. By all means, remember the Men of Extortion 17 and then recognize the sacrifice of all of our fallen.
American Marauder – Choose Danger Shirt
Sunday, August 3rd, 2014
In Norse mythology, Siegfried is a brave young man who is raised by the dwarf, Regin. He decides that he wants to do something important and goes into the cave where the dragon lives. He battles and slays the dragon. The quote is from Euripedes circa 412 BC – ‘A coward turns away, but a brave man’s choice is danger.’
American Marauder’s ‘Choose Danger’ shirt features a “design that is dedicated to those that choose to wake and slay the dragon every day.” Made from 65/35 polyester/cotton, the shirt is slim fit and comes in black.
Printed in the USA.
