It's eye-catching and very well organized. I've passed it along to my e-mail buds and they've enjoyed it, too. You've done really good work, sorry you're tired to the bone & feelin' it. I know it can't compete with N. GA, but just know that your work is appreciated! Trevor, I subscribed to the MNF-I newsletter and I have thoroughly enjoyed it.

We've achieved those things, I hope. Alisa,

Much needed. You're right, I'm on the end of a very long spate of 12-14-16 hour shifts. My spirit is low a lot. Your advice is sound and appreciated. Greyhawk,

Thanks for the kind words. Much needed. You’re right, I’m on the end of a very long spate of 12-14-16 hour shifts. My spirit is low a lot.

Your advice is sound and appreciated.

Will it last? Nah, the next guy will want to make his mark too. You are deep in the doldrums of the rotation (been there, done that, will again) and it shows in many of your current posts. I don't mean to be harsh, far from it. This is how it is, and if I guess right it's becoming increasingly hard for you to sit down and post blog entries. No surprise there, it's the cycle every deployed milblogger goes through. In the end, you'll have created one man's view of the Iraq experience. You've shared that - in one of the finest voices I've encountered from theater - with a goodly number of good people who won't ever experience it first hand. Good or bad, that will stand longer than the pixels you put together for MNF-I. Aside from that, in the real world, you've done your bit. You've made history while others made noise. And no matter where you go from here, you'll find it's a new chapter in life with abundant opportunities for success or failure. You are familiar with failure, of course - since all wars are a series of failures culminating in victory. So when you get the opportunity to call your own shots, focus on success. Keep on keepin' on. Trevor – that’s a great looking page, by far the best I’ve seen in the DoD.
