Suddenly cruising the highways of our home country was surreal. We were so tired and everything was just so familiar, yet at the same time completely odd, or perhaps 'wonderful' is the correct word, maybe even fantastic. We just stared and sort of mentally drooled, perhaps unable to process all that was suddenly before us: flat, paved highways, restaurants galore, malls, movie theaters, lot after lot filled with brand new cars, stores, stores, and more stores.
Then we pulled into Fort Lewis, drove out to our barracks, and immediately got off the busses to… get into lines.
