Casey Sheehan, her late son, reenlisted in the U.S. military in August 2003. At the age of 23. By his own choice.
Remember what was going on in August 2003? How we hadn’t found WMD and people were starting to talk about how we weren’t going to find them? How things were a mess there and we weren’t leaving any time soon? These ideas were all present and prevalent when Casey Sheehan himself took it upon himself of his own free will to REENLIST in the military. Perhaps some disrespect is being shown to Casey Sheehan by denying him the full adulthood that comes with respecting his brave and noble choice.
