Afghanistan is a country with a beautiful past and an amazing future is it the same now? After many years of fighting with terrorism, the country now seems to have given up. Afghan forces are surrendering en masse as the Taliban capture city after city at a staggering rate, raising concerns of a government collapse and leaving citizens to contend with the Taliban's harsh and violent demands. Afghan civilians in northern provinces who spoke to more than a dozen people - some trapped behind Taliban lines, others displaced to displacement camps - already report closed girls' schools, poor families forced to cook food for ravenous fighters, and young men pressured into joining the militant ranks. New arrivals to villagers have threatened violence to several people.

At first glance it does not seem too hard to write a fictional story involving a green light right? Starting with the obvious right away we got green traffic lights, plenty of possibilities there. Where I live the gas prices displayed on the stations illuminated signs are in green. You could write a whole story based on how those green light prices make you more miserable everyday as those prices go higher. In fact I just realized today most ATMs flash a green light when being used by a customer. If you really wanted to swing for the fences here, could you imagine if somehow DC gave you permission to use their intellectual property rights to the Green Lantern? We are talking home run on that.

This is The Pen Story. It’s an Army story. It’s actually my Army story, the one I pull out when the occasion calls for an Army story from my five years as an Army officer.

If you’ve stumbled across this, it’s probably because you’re experiencing the same thing, or at least something similar, that I am. It’s been 3 days since my boyfriend left for basic training at Fort Leonard Wood, MO. We dropped him off Monday, July 12, 2021, and he hopped on a bus Tuesday, July 13, 2021, to his home for the next 6 months. Basic training is only 2 months, but he’s also doing his 4 month schooling there as well. I knew that this day was coming, yet my heart still aches for him to be home with me. I’ve been preparing myself for this day since we found out his ship out date, but nothing can prepare you for that final goodbye or that final I love you.

CORPORAL MERRICK Written by James Merrick , July 8, 2021 One of my dad’s wartime stories actually became a family tradition. It was a tale he was asked to tell time and time again during gatherings of our clan. Since his death in 1999, the torch has been taken up by other family members to the delight of young and old alike. This is my version of his experience. I hope it brings a smile to your face and a lasting memory.
