While I was working in Iraq, I would often visit the infantry units to fix their PCs. There was one unit where I would always talk to a specific Sgt, we got along really well, and one day I went over there and asked to speak to him, and everyone in the room was simply quiet. It took a few seconds to dawn on me. I don't know how to describe how I felt, it was definitely a new kind of emptiness. I had realized this before, but it simply reinforced my need to make the most of every day we have.
