I remember
As I look back to when I left The Home, I remember the high
fences with three (or was it four) strands of barb wire and the
lights atop the band room. I don't see as a place of confinement
anymore. It was a safe haven to keep the kids safe from outside
predators.I now look back on it as the most character forming years
of my life. (though I didn't know it at the time and I wasn't the
best pupil). However, I retained the lessons taught and was guided
throughout my life by them. Life in the military reinforced those
tenets.
