You'll find link to Nate Showman's blog in this enquirer article. Some here may know him. It looks like he should be coming home soon.

I know the Showman's. They are a great family.

Nate is a good man and fine American for serving; not trying to get political, but I wish all of our soldiers could return with him.

This man shows the Xavier spirit.

Read his blog.

I don't want to minimize nor do I want to trivialize what he is going through with my words.

But you can tell he is a Musketeer. He knows what it means to be part of something bigger. He knows what sacrifice is. He knows what it means to forgoe the individual wants or needs for the greater good.

I am damn proud to say that we went to the same university, perchance walked the same halls, maybe even took the same classes. He is Xavier all the way, and I am thankful.
