Can't remember specifically where I was when they caught him but I want to say I was at my aunt and uncle's in Nebraska either when he was sentenced or when he was hung as I remember seeing that on the news at their house.

I was in Herat, Afghanistan.
Little did I know that 8 months later I'd be on my way to Iraq.

I was at my uncles house in Florida, sitting in a hot tub. Not bad.

I was in Basic Training. It was a Sunday, and our DSs called us out into the hallways and played the report over the PA system. Everybody cheered.
