I made it a couple hours up the road, and then pulled into a hotel for the night. It was a lot to take in and I wasn’t able to focus on driving. Didn’t sleep very well, took forever to get to sleep, then tossed all night. Made the trip home seem like days instead of 12 hours or whatever it was.
Still haven’t really ever talked it out with anyone, I always change subject to get away from it. Spent a lot of time in combat during my career and can work through all of that. This event is the one really haunts me hard, a lot harder than anything else ever has.
