Congratulation on your win. This is a nice little slice of life you shared in these few words. It sound like you have a full life and are willing to give back to those who need help.

This has all the elements of a flash story (tight story line, paucity of words etc.), and covers as requested the whole life, and even manages a couple of opinions of it. Right from the beginning I was hooked by the photograph that matches perfectly the title and life as a youngster. I would like just to vote for this, but fairness demands that I read all entries first.

Let me start by saying "Thank you for your service." I wish you had included more about your life as a whole, but I understand that for many veterans, their service WAS their life. Also, 150 doesn't leave a lot of room for "fluff". So again, I will just say "thank you for your service and good luck in the contest." Stay safe and healthy in these interesting times we are living in.

A very fast moving life you have lived. The idea that you help veterans is a wonderful thing. What a trying life for the veterans who have lost their hands in battle. God bless them and you, too.

I SALUTE your ability to condense your varied life of service, creativity, love and faith into a mere 150 words. You will probably win the contest because of your values and ability.

You did such a great job summarizing your amazing accomplishments and so happy you were able to write and express your journey. Service to others, especially our most vulnerable populations is purely an act of love for humankind. Wonderful work!

Hello Anon
Very interesting to read. The prompt has been amazing, to see how people distill their lives under the cramped condition of 150 words.
Your take here is very much a whirlwind of time.
I am sure you will do well with this - and I am sure you will do well, generally.
Cheers

I appreciate this excellent entry for the contest. You have done a great job touching on memories and images that are significant. That is the best attitude to have to help those who are less fortunate and appreciate how God's grace has helped you. Bill
