Disturbing phone call for my wife......

Postby bwm » Tue Jan 18, 2005 2:45 pm

This morning, my wife got a phone call from her brother. He is with the Mississippi National Guard and arrived in Kuwait on Sunday. He told her that it was 5:00pm there and he was about to board a plane for Al Fallujah. He didn't know how long it would be before we would hear from him again. He said to wish him well and that he loved us.

Keep him in your thoughts.

Your family definatly has my thoughts and prayers and tell him thanks for everything he does for our country. These guys are the reason we can play on these computers all day and talk about duck hunting. So, thank you!

He will be in my prayers. Remind him to ignore the bad media that he will see, America supports him and loves him.

bwm, my brother fly's cargo aircraft for the Miss National Guard. I understand the feelings... He gets shot at a little too often.
Sometimes you just have to close your eyes, count to ten, take a deep breath and remind yourself that you wouldn't look good in prison stripes... and just smile at that dumbass and walk away.

battalion?

Postby bolivarduck » Wed Jan 19, 2005 8:35 am

Is he part of the 155th? I have a cousin that is there with the 155th now and my uncle used to command this battalion. I say a prayer for them everyday and hope they all return safe to their families.

Thanks everyone. He's an E7 with the 198th Armor. I am keeping a journal of when we hear from him and where. It's pretty interesting of how quickly they can be moved and also that they have no clue as to where they are going until it's "Showtime".

Thanks Again!
