Trina Letter - Go Get 'Em, Tiger!

Monday, December 19, 2005

Hey, Navy:

We haven’t heard from you in a while and we’re thinking it’s because you haven’t had a chance to recharge your phone card, so there should be one in the envelope. Please call when you can. Hell, call collect.

And we’re sorry that we haven’t written. We have reasons. I dunno what YM is putting in her letter, but once you hear what’s going on, you’ll understand and accept where we’re coming from.

We did get your letter that explained what’s going on with your guts and we feel for you. We’re also wondering if the Navy is overreacting a little by sending you home. According to WebMD, rest and antibiotics are called for, and it only takes a few days to cure.

So we’re thinking that maybe they have other questions about you. Just so the air is clear here, whatever negatives things they may be thinking and/or saying about you is total and complete bullshit. YM, your seesters, and I all trust you to the nth degree and know that you’re one of the absolute best people ever.

If they do send you home, the United States Navy will have lost one of the finest individuals they ever had in their grasp. I personally cannot believe they are so stupid, but that’s the way some organizations are. After two hundred years of existence, a certain mind-set is sure to develop.

As for you coming home, we can hardly wait. Just remember that your life is not a bad movie scene from An Officer and A Gentleman. You still have all the brains, talents, and energy you had when you went in. If anything, you’re better than you were a few weeks ago. If the Navy in their stupidity does send you home, then we’ll do here what we can to get you back in A-1 condition so you can reassess your choices.

This is a turning point in your life, and you get to decide starting now whether you are a victim or an aggressor. I believe you’re smart enough to choose to be an aggressor.

I guess what I’m trying to say is: Don’t Let The Bastards Get You Down.

Love you with all my heart,
Air Force
