I don't really consider it "staring death in the face", but I guess I had the feeling that I might soon be kissing my ass goodbye when the rockets were being fired in our direction while I was in Afghanistan.
And, many years ago, I was a violent crime victim, with threats of serious consequences....I opted to do as I was told and I guess that's why I'm sitting here today.
