    'Some of the most important military missions have been medical evacuations – medivacs.

    'Soldiers don’t often fight for themselves. They fight for the guy next to them, their brother, their friend, their family.

    'And they fight hard.

    'In 2019, Cohesion author and friend… hell, more family, really… Jim Moore was suddenly in the struggle of his life. He overcame the Big C, but his fight is ongoing. A fight to pay for all the treatments in a country that has no free public health system, and a fight to claw his way back from the ravages of the very treatment that saved his life.

    'His fight is our fight, and if we don’t fight for our friends, is there anything really worth living for?

    'All income from SNAFU: Medivac goes to Jim to help pay his bills and keep his household functional.

    'Once this is no longer necessary, the income will transfer to a cancer research or treatment charity.'
