Alternate Decision was born somewhere between anger and sleep deprivation. I was in the middle of my 4 year contract with the United States Army, smack dab inside a war torn Mosul, Iraq during OIFIII, 2005. After the sounds of one too many Apache helicopters unloading in surrounding areas, or the reports on the radio of fellow comrades being attacked by suicide bombers, I decided that I needed som...ething to occupy my mind. Something else other than being in Iraq in the middle of what I felt was an unjust war.
Not willing to give in to the military's one and only solution of anti-depressants and sleeping pills, I decided to pick up a new hobby of designing t-shirts. Hence the birth of my Alternate Decision not to take those drugs.
