One of the things I did as a result of, and increasingly in honor of, Wes'
sacrifice was get involved in Critical Incident Stress Management, with the
Bay Area CISM Team.  On Saturday, which was the third anniversary of Wes'
death in Fallujah, I helped lead one of the most difficult CIS debriefings
I've done so far, from about 10 pm to midnight at our county 911
communications center.  I think it was a good way to honor his sacrifice,
not to mention what dispatchers go through (most of us have no idea how
truly hard that job is).
