" Every time it rains, I walk through war.
I walk through fields of 17 year old boys
crying for their mothers,
tree-lines disintegrating from napalm.
I can see the faces of everyone
who I've ever been responsible for killing.
Those images just flood my mind.
Only after re-experiencing all of that
can I come to the awareness
that right now, it's just raining. "

I watched this video from Kickstarter today which featured Claude Anshin Thomas and the above quote. This looks like a project worth financing. His story sounds fascinating. I'll be reading his book very soon.
