When I'm not having the time of my life at work, I'm either 3D modeling, or playing smash bros and minecraft with the boys.

The POW Who Kept His Promise to the Kaiser.
In 1914, British Captain Robert Campbell of the East Surrey Regiment was severely wounded and captured by German forces just weeks into World War I. For two long years, he languished in the Magdeburg prisoner-of-war camp, completely cut off from his family.
In late 1916, Campbell received devastating news: his mother in England was dying of cancer. Desperate to see her one last time, he took a wildly improbable shot in the dark. He wrote a personal letter directly to Kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany, begging for a brief compassionate leave.
Astonishingly, the Kaiser personally granted the request. The German leader offered Campbell two weeks of leave to visit his dying mother in Kent, on one single condition. Campbell had to give his "word as a British officer" that he would voluntarily return to the enemy prison camp when the fortnight was up.
Campbell traveled across war-torn Europe by boat and train, reached his family home in Gravesend, and spent a precious final week with his mother before she passed away. He then did the unthinkable: he kissed his remaining family goodbye, packed his bags, and traveled right back to Germany.
Honoring his word, Captain Campbell walked directly back into the Magdeburg POW camp and surrendered himself to his captors. He spent the next two years imprisoned until the war finally ended in 1918, proving that for some men, honor holds far more weight than freedom.

In 2007, when Chuck Norris visited Marines in Western Iraq, he demanded to get away from large bases and instead visit the small FOBs and COPs. MNF-W said it would be too dangerous, but Norris insisted and in the end, got his way.
I'm forever grateful for the example he set, and this awesome choke hold.

本日、ホワイトハウスを訪れ、トランプ大統領との日米首脳会談を行いました。
緊迫した状況が続くイラン情勢については、事態を一刻も早く沈静化させ、ホルムズ海峡における航行の安全、エネルギーの安定供給を確保することの重要性を確認しました。
これは、我が国の国益を守る観点からも重要です。
トランプ大統領には、こうした考えを伝え、これらを実現していくために、しっかりと意思疎通を続けていくことを確認しました。
世界のエネルギー市場を落ち着かせるような取組も提案しました。
米国における原油の生産拡大や調達、SMRにおける協力、さらには南鳥島周辺海域におけるレアアース泥の開発に関する協力について合意しました。
これは、我が国の資源・エネルギー安全保障に資するものです。
また、中国、北朝鮮などについても意見交換を行いました。
とりわけ、北朝鮮の拉致問題については、私自身の決意も伝え、トランプ大統領からは全面的な協力への約束をいただきました。
今回の会談を通じて、安全保障、経済安全保障を含む経済など幅広い分野において、日米同盟の「質」をさらに高める多くの具体的な協力を確認できたことは、大きな成果だったと思います。
また、トランプ大統領と一緒に「自由で開かれたインド太平洋(FOIP)」を力強く推進していくことも、確認しました。
今後も、トランプ大統領と緊密にやり取りを続け、日米同盟の更なる高みを目指していきます。
