I started doing some of the Back to School shopping for my baby bassets last night. I always consider buying new socks and underwear a must to start the school year off right. This year marks a sad occasion though. The underwear I bought for my youngest basset does not have any fun characters on them. No Pokemon. No Mario. Just solid colors and stripes. They look like underwear a man would wear. My youngest even picked out a lunchbox that was plain. I was just about to cry, but then my oldest chose a Minecraft lunchbox. OH THANK GOSH!! I still have my sweet young babies!

YOUR BEST FRIEND IS DEAD ON HIS LIVING ROOM FLOOR
Suddenly you’re jerked into a scene right out an intense action thriller book. You’d planned a transpacific adventure with him and other close friends on your huge, historical sailboat. Without mercy, you’re locked into a nightmare like an FBI thriller, a CIA black ops story and a detective crime book all rolled into one.

YOU KNOW INSTANTLY THAT YOU WILL FIND THE UNFRIENDLIES
Because of your training for deadly force encounters, you engage instantly. “The United States Marine Corps Force Reconnaissance detachments, or FORECON, operate in deep reconnaissance, direct action, and the control of supporting arms; to convey military intelligence beyond the means of a commander’s area of influence in the battlefield… ”

WHAT IF ALL THAT FORCE RECON TRAINING HAD GIVEN YOU CLARITY
They operate at such great distances that they are beyond the boundaries, or fan, of any artillery and/or naval gunfire support (NGFS); unlike their Division Recon brethren, whose operations are primarily within the artillery and gunfire support fan. Silence and stealth are vital… ”
