I mean what do you and others never want to have to do. As a marine my husband jumped out of helicopters, not me, ever.

I'm going for the never jumping out of a plane. Apparently it's a common wish.

To me, being unable to live anything resembling a normal life, would be the Last thing I would want. Should I ever get to the point where I need constant care, for any more than a few days, I would hope that Dr. Kevorkian principals exist.
Eat the kind of food my mother-in-law used to serve, including blood sausage and soup filled with soggy kale. Oh, and that dried cod and potato casserole. And the absolute worst? Tripe. Which is part of a cow's stomach that is scrubbed, rubbed with lemon and then cut up and boiled, served in a spicy tomato sauce. *Sigh* and then there were the pig's feet...people wonder why literally EVERYONE in the family has GERD.

Buy another car, house.
Go back to school.
Being the Best Man at another wedding.
Take a driving test at the D. M. V.
Get on/in something, and push, pull, drag, peddle, drive for 10,000 miles
Climb more than 6 inches.

Sometimes, Concentrating on what you don't want or what scares yu the most, actually brings it to you. Thoughts are powerful.

I doubt anything can bring an airplane to me, to get on and jump out of.

One of my nephews is or was a weapons officer on a sub out of Kings Bay. I forget the name of the sub but it was a boomer, when I looked it up and read some of the history of what they do I fully understood why he never talked much. Pretty much stayed to himself too. He's still in the silent service so there must be some kind of attraction that compels them to do what they do knowing the outcome if they received that message. I asked him once (I really had to know) if they received that message would they really carry out that order. He looked at me incredulously and said yes they would carry out that order without hesitation, he said they would do it, they wouldn't like to but they would do it, they'd have to do it. I then asked him what happens after that? What do you do? He said it really doesn't matter. Well so much for dedication and the will and more so the determination to do what needs to be done to keep America safe. Still it gave me pause.
