From Somalia to North Korea and on to the former Soviet Union, What It Means to Serve: From Airborne Ranger to Peace Corps Volunteer is the intriguing and witty account of Robert Donayres six years of service for the U.S. Federal Government in two undoubtedly conflicting organizations the U.S. Army and Peace Corps. At the age of seventeen, Donayre enlists to become an airborne ranger, young and unsure of the uncertainties that surround his future. As he becomes immersed in military life, he finds himself traveling, drinking, and meeting women during short, army-allotted excursions. When his four-year contract comes to an end, Donayre spends seven years earning his masters degree and then decides to do the unthinkable: join the famously liberal Peace Corps. Assigned to Moldova, a small country in the former Soviet Union, he becomes engrossed in a politically conflicted culture thats notoriously intertwined with corruption and poverty. Donayres two-year stint as a teacher of English as a foreign language at the university level allows him to view, first hand, the effects of a broken nation on an emerging generation of workers. What It Means to Serve: From Airborne Ranger to Peace Corps Volunteer is a memoir that takes its readers through a range of politically charged emotions as Donayre openly engages in the dualities of war and peace.

COOFANDY Men’s Flannel Shirt Jacket
Color: Khaki, Size: Medium
The material has a soft, cozy texture that offers good warmth without being too heavy, haven't washed it yet, but don't think it will shrink, easy to wash, doesn't wrinkle. The size fits comfortably, giving a relaxed but stylish look perfect for layering. Despite being lightweight, it feels very well-made and durable for long-term use. Great comfort, great style, and solid quality overall.

Looks great buy too short
Color: Red, Size: 4X-Large
Purchased for my son for a Christmas event at his job. He is 330pds and 6ft tall so I got the 4xl for him. It's fits perfectly in width BUT it's short. I know because he is tall I should have searched for a 4XLT but could not find one in the colors needed. But I purchased a white 4xlt tee for him to wear underneath and leave the shirt open it's looks great. So great shirt comfy and cozy well made and colors exactly as shown but if you are on the taller side maybe wear it as an over shirt with a tee underneath.
