Mac, dont be to disgruntled about them not taking you.
They want fresh pawns to program, not a old war dog who already knows the tricks and would be most likely to tell his commander to sit on the long end of a m16.
At any rate, if things get realy bad here on the home front, ill rest better knowing we have people like you STILL here, if ever things get bad enough that we need you.
And about you wife's sister, that is the rule of the land, they take you and convert you, teach you hate * ignorance blind faith and love for a satan god. Or they put a bullet in your head and call YOU evil.
Ill be a dead man before i ever denounce my lord, the only thing is i am unwilling to slaughter or murder someone else regardless of what they preach.
Some day, one side will give.
I prey it is not ours.
