Just so you know...my dh says they can't approach the Iraqi children any more. So many of them beg for food and soldiers couldn't help but give them anything they had on them.

Anyway, it became more of a liability I think one might say. Eyes, ears, and full attention must be on your surroundings...you never know when something could distract you from sniper fire or be a trap.

Nice thought but I really do think if it goes for my husband battalion...it goes for all.

And what does Maple need? Peace of mind but I'll settle for prayers for Him and for us, me and our 2 little girls.

yea its best to stay away from the kids, when i was there on my 2006 tour, we were told not to approach the kids, but that didnt mean we didnt throw them water, food and soccer balls, they LOVE soccer balls and candy the most , I was infantry so we were always around them, its hard for infantry to completely stay away when we are right there
