CARRY ME HOME - PART 3: DEION
Deion joined the Army the day after September 11th. He went down to the recruiting office, despite the pleas of his mother and Harper, and signed on the dotted line. The damn fool didn’t even have the sense to ask for a relative safe assignment like computer tech.
After basic and advanced training, he was shipped off to Iraq. A week later his mom was visited by army officers expressing their condolences and talking about how he was a hero, as much as you can be a hero by being blown up in a humvee by roadside bomb.
