I have seen the clip of green day" wake me up when september ends" and its really sad its about a guy who leaves his girlfriend to go to the army and people are getting shot a lot and its really depressing and I wish , if i could, that I could stand in one of your shoes and see how hard it is because a lot of people are saying, oh, well the army is easy, but its terribley hard and scary. So i wanted to let all of you guys and girls out ther in the army that there are a lot of poeple that are couting you all to make it through and come back home safely. So dont give up your courage. For when all hope is lost, turn to god... and believe.
