Sounds about right

"I was reading about the Pulitzer Prize winning photographer, Craig F. Walker, of the Denver Post, and a selection of 20 images from his "high school to basic training to Iraq" feature, when I noticed an interesting detail.

The second image, dated 16 June 2007, shows the subject, Ian, kissing a blonde girl named Ashley at a party before departing for Denver MEPS.

The twelfth image, dated 15 December 2007, shows Ian and Kayla in one of those not-so-swanky military jewelry shops--the ones that finance anyone with a pulse for 30% interest, picking out and getting financed for a diamond-cut engagement ring.

The eighteenth image, dated 18 December 2008, shows Ian laying on his cot, talking to Kayla on a cell phone, from Iraq."
