US Army Soldier and Content Producer Soldier6575 shares his experience coming home from Iraq in Am I a Coward for Having Fear?

He writes:

"There were times in Iraq when I was scared, I won't lie to you. I literally had various occasions where I thought "I may not make it home". Do not let anyone tell you that in a combat situation they had "no fear", they are lying. Fear should not be confused with being a coward. We all have fears in one form or another. You must not let your fears overtake you to the point where you no longer become and effective soldier."

Interesting content on timely topics has always been an AC strongsuit, and coverage of this weekend's events is no exception.

Content Producer Lisa Andrews stirs up controversy - and some good food for thought - in Cinqo de Mayo - Is it About Cerveza or Civil Rights, while Content Producer Wade Peery champions Derby Day in Kentucky Derby- A Sporting Event Unlike Any Other.

Look at a calendar and submit your story today - publishing it around a month before the holiday or event date is a good rule of thumb.
