You know, I remember meeting up here in Toronto with Vanessa Larter who was a medic with us in my platoon and I brought up a story about one of the engineers that I worked very closely with over there, Steve May, East Coast newfie and I mean talk about having the right guy beside you to keep the morale up. We were engaged in a fire fight and I just remember standing there exchanging lead with the opposing forces in the ditches there and it was probably some of the most foul stuff that one could even think of. We were standing in this stuff and you’ll have to excuse my language on this one but Steve was down on his knees beside me also engaging and I just get this tap on my leg. I said, “Ya Steve, what do you want? ” He goes, “Fitz, I guess you can really say we’ve been in the shit, eh boy? ” And I said, “C’mon man, are you serious? ” Just like moments like that, sit up, you know, it gets you going and those are the memories that I try to rely on now when I’m in these down moments that I get into nowadays.
