And I wasn’t even offended! I was running with a few of my soldiers in the morning ‘PT’ session, just before sunrise.

July 27th, 2011 Justin Griffith 
I was just appointed the Military Director of American Atheists, Inc. I’m extremely proud and grateful for the opportunity to ‘play in the big leagues’. Alas, I must start out with a bang: The death of “No atheists in foxholes”.

The author has clearly made tough choices, and at great risk to his own professional development.
