It was surreal - The whole world pivoted in that moment.
I only wish better choices had been made.
The nation was united and the world (with few exceptions) were supportive of us, so of course W and Co. pissed it all away.
It's hard to be furious, disappointed and bitter while also being proud and genuinely fond of your comrades at the same time.
I manage though.
Peace
