The Why, When and Where of the Band Saw Fest

The Why:

Isis, The Taliban, Fast Food Establishments.  All over the world there are organizations/ individuals that have one soul purpose in life and that is the inhalation of Americans and the freedom that we stand for.  No one knows where, why or when it started but it is going strong and will never end.  Spin around 180 and we have the Armed Forces, brave men and women whose sole purpose in their life is to protect the innocent and oppressed, all over the world, 24/7 365.  That is you, me, your family, my family, everyone no matter where you live, no matter what country. They are away from their homes and families on tours that can last anywhere from months to years.  At some time the tour does end and these brave souls get to come home, but unfortunately this is not where the battle ends.  The Military provides around two weeks of debriefing for the returning soldiers which is not any where near the amount that these courageous souls need, especially if you were injured in action.
