Ah well, got to watch something! LOL Yes, just concentrate on the now, which unfortunately for him, lately, has been day to day survival. Must be difficult to adjust for certain. He'll come round once the feeling of home truely sinks in. Hope it stays that way afterwards. Obama is pulling troops from Iraq in just over a year and maybe, they can slack up on Afganistan, but I doubt it. That country is a hotbed of hatred unfortunately.
