War is different now than a century ago. It is much more diplomatic. Soldiers in Iraq are doing a lot less shooting, and a lot more working WITH the people, and helping them build/rebuild infrastructure. My mission in Iraq was to find road side bombs and get rid of them safely, both for the protection of our own soldiers and Iraqi civilians. We are also only to return fire. Don't shoot unless you're shot at first.
But none of that is the point of your post. Is Chapel the place to talk about this sort of thing? Maybe. If it's a random guy that you sent a care package to, I'm going to have to agree that it isn't. However, in my situation, where I grew up in the Church, they were all praying for me while I was gone, and it was planned in advance that I would share about it Sunday morning, in lieu of the sermon, then I believe it's ok.
God must be involved though. It must be shared how you saw God at work in your time at war. It must be shared how God worked in you. And if you learn the things I learned, you must share all the rich Biblical history that happened there, before it became a muslim country.

It is true that pasture would seem to make more sense than annual crops, but you need some outstanding cattle to make up the difference on what a crop would bring. Even renting out pasture land only brings about $15/acre, less than half of what most tillable ground does. That's a big difference when you have to come up with the money for property tax.
