This is how an American soldier is made.

For 27 months, Ian Fisher, his parents and friends, and the U.S. Army allowed Denver Post reporters and a photographer to watch and chronicle his recruitment, induction, training, deployment, and, finally, his return from combat. A selection of photos from Ian’s journey are posted below.

The story was written by Kevin Simpson with Michael Riley and Bruce Finley. It was reported by Riley in Colorado and at Fort Benning, Ga., Finley at Fort Carson and in Iraq, and photographer Craig F. Walker throughout.

The multimedia project, including all the photos, video and special features, can be viewed at http://blogs.denverpost.com/captured/2009/09/10/ian-fisher-american-soldier/






This is one of the pictures from the collage and really got to me though. Children playing dress ups.




Sorry if I put this in the wrong forum. It's a photo blog, so I felt it was appropriate, It didn't fall into any other forums here. With the large ex military folk here I thought they'd enjoy it. I did.

I'm not large! I'm 'Portly'.

Thanks for sharing that. Great perspective that many civvies will never experience without stories like that.
