Afghan Quote by Gary Sinise

“I do spend a lot of weekends on the road. I have to pace myself. It can be pretty busy, but I'm not out in the Afghan desert with 70 pounds on my back, away from my family for a year at a time. I keep a good perspective on it.” quote by Gary Sinise — Download Open image
