| Thank you, he really loves what he is doing. This would have been his last year of his tour, but he decided to re-enlist. He wants to be a Drill Seg. at the base in San Diego. So far he has been doing very well with all his exams and training, the 'higher ups' really like him, so we are really hoping that he does indeed get his orders for Drill Seg. in Cali when he comes back |

The 3 Musketeers Donating Member | I know how you are feeling, and I really mean that. My son spent a year in Afghanistan a little over a year ago. That year was the longest in my life. But these guys that are sent over there are very well trained and know what they are doing. The most difficult part of it was the communications or rather lack of it. They just can't pick up the phone and call home whenever they want. And don't ask for details on what they are doing, it's classified, or at least what my son did was. Take it easy and if you want to talk to someone who's been through it, go ahead and sent me a PM. Good luck, and try not to cry when talking to him, you don't want him going over there worrying about you, he needs to focus on what's going on over there. I hope this helps.

| I cannot even begin to imagine what you are feeling and going through right now. I don't even know what to say to make you feel better. Remind yourself that He is in God's hands. Pray for him daily. (((hugs)))

| Hi Nicole! Bless your heart! I can imagine how worried you are feeling. A year seems SO long, but I hope the time flies while he is gone. I will pray for his safety there. Tell him thank you for keeping us all safe! Hugs to you!
