This beautiful child didn't grow up to be a princess, a banker, a model, an attorney or some lucky man's wife. She's a soldier in the US military, toting an M-16 - one of thousands of poor and working-class teens who choose the military over joblessness. They face death every day in the wars that are bleeding our country of its precious young people and piling massive debt on us, our children and their children, too.

While this is an outstanding capture and presentation, Gina, I want to thank you so much for your description, as I couldn't have said it better! Lovely imagery to view, but not lovely image in one's mind, to see this youth so much "In Harm's Way"! Thanks for sharing, Gina, as I personally appreciated this piece very much! f/v

Gina, What a wonderful and sensitive portrait! Still wearing the innocence of childhood, she's been thrown to the wolves of war by circumstances found in our Country and encouraged by our politicians. Excellent work and social commentary. Voted
