threadjack...but worth it
E5B--DocT is right--the book is called "A Table in the Presence". Like I said, great book. If you're spiritual or not, you'll be amazed at some of the miracles the Chaplain describes--accounts of RPG's being shot point-blank (no joke) at our Marines in alleyways, unexplicably veering off and missing everything...another Marine turned around in his turret to see two of the enemy just about ready to take him out, when all of a sudden they just dropped the tube and bolted--he cut them down...a 'mystery convoy' of humvees...--it's a spook book by no means, just shows a good account of faith...THREADJACK--writing this got me remembering a story my little brother (senior in hs) heard in his government class...this soldier--graduated hs a few years behind me--was in Iraq, riding in the back of some rig, when he was shot by a sniper on a bridge, could've been a building, i can't recall. i'm sure he's a great soldier, been in for a few years now, but man, he could be a wild kid...anyway, he was shot by this sniper, and the round went through his helmet and right down his scalp...right down the middle...but didn't wound him...pretty sure my bro said he was crying as he told the gov't class...this 'wild kid' had a life-changing experience that day, he told the teacher (our old fb coach, great Christian guy) that he accepted Christ now too...say what you want, but that's powerful...
