Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 12
Chapter Twelve
Ben handed each of his lieutenants a beer and took careful note of how many each of them had had to drink. Ben was the last person to nag at someone about how much they drank but then again, he was a commander now.

Chapter Ten
"Want a cookie?"
"Do I look like someone who enjoys cookies?" Sorren asked.
"What? Cookies make everything better. Not as better as, say, vodka, but hey, it's a
start."
"You sound like a woman who needs chocolate," Sorren said.

Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 9
Chapter Nine
"Am I correct in understanding that you had two soldiers picked up from the police this morning?" Major Denis asked.
Later that morning, Ben stood in the XO's office, biting the inside of his lip to keep from smarting off at the field grade officer. He had absolutely zero business questioning Ben about his company.

Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 8
Chapter Eight
Ben was used to not sleeping well. He supposed it had started in Iraq, after their base had gotten blown all to hell and nearly taken Ben with it. But it had worsened with a vengeance when he'd been in the hospital after having his stomach stitched up and with the burns on his shoulder itching and driving him crazy.

Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 7
Chapter Seven
Olivia was silent on the ride back to post. She felt rude but she couldn't explain to Ben why wearing a combat patch was important to her. Why buying the Stetson felt pretentious and fake-because she didn't feel like she belonged and the Stetson only accentuated that feeling.
It wasn't about fitting in.

Chapter Six
"Are you ready for this, sir?"
Ben stared at the packet in his hand, wanting to be anywhere else but here at the moment. "Did I ever tell you about the time our base got overrun?"
Sorren watched him silently.
"Zittoro manned the fifty cal for thirty-six hours straight. Never took a break for chow, nothing.

Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 5
Chapter Five
Ben pulled into the commander's parking spot the next morning, grateful at least that he no longer had to worry about finding a place to put his truck in the mass confusion that was PT traffic on Fort Hood.

Book of the Month: TAKE ME HOME: Chapter 4
Chapter Four
Ben walked into the Bandit Company ops-his company-and noticed that everyone stilled as he walked through. No one approached. No one said anything but there was an undercurrent to the watchfulness. Almost as though they were waiting for the other boot to hit the floor.
This week was one for the record books.

Then she gave up and lowered her face into her hands, replaying the conversation with the battalion commander and Captain Teague in her head.Over and over again.

Chapter Two
"There really needs to be a good reason my phone is ringing at four a.m. on a Tuesday." Ben leaned his head into his palm and held the phone to his ear. He'd just fallen asleep a half hour before and right then, he felt like committing murder and mayhem.
"I'm at the hospital."
Ben sat up, instantly awake at the familiar voice.

Hello and welcome to damppebbles. We've waved goodbye to February 2025 (which, despite being the shortest month of the year, felt as long as 'never-ending January' did!) and we're celebrating March's arrival. Well, actually, truth be told, I'm sat in my dining room writing this post on…
Our Book of the Month: Digital Communication by Harald Sack & Christoph Meinel
Harald recalls: "Writing this book let me dive deep into the history of communication - from pictograms to the digital age. A fascinating rabbit hole!"
Fun fact: His alias @lysander07 comes from the Spartan general Lysander who thwarted a Persian attack in 404 BC using the Skytale cipher—the oldest known military encryption!
Available in German, English & Chinese!
