Day 141, Missoula Rabble, Tina

Tina was trying to make ends meet before she decided to join the army. She was attending school and held three jobs while taking care of her 2-year-old daughter. "I'd had enough," she said. "It was an escape." She went to Afghanistan for one year and she could go back at any point because of her contract. I asked her what it was like in Afghanistan. "You're expecting the worst possible thing in the world. You're expecting hell," she said. "When I got there I found people in general were normal people just trying to make it day to day."
