okie-congrats!!! Our DD and DSIL graduated from boot camp and 2 and 1 respectivley other training camps. DD goes to Kabul in march leaving DSIL home with the three young children. He is not scheduled to go yet.
iheartchickens- The war is not worse than you see on t.v.
T.V. does not report anything about the war that is good. Between DD(MI),DSIL, and other relatives that are involved(one female marine who has done three tours in Iraq!) t.v. only shows the bad things. DH is involved with FCSA forum which has many soldiers involved, there are sooo many good things happening with this war, especially less soldier getting hurt, than since the beginning.
You just have to hold on to hope and KNOW that we are doing the right thing. We can't stop now, we can't desert the Iraqi people for a THIRD time. We need to just keep on keeping on, keep a strong front and most importantly remember our pledge-UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL
Too many people forget that, we need to come together as a whole and support our troops and freedom no matter the costs.
