| Home from Iraq Hi everyone, My cousin Jeremy (whom I am EXTREMELY close too) is a Marine Reservist... He's been in Iraq since October... I just recieved and e-mail from his saying that he will be home in 2 weeks!! I am SO excited!! He has 2 more days in Fahlujah (sp?) and then on monday or tuesday he will begin shipping out!! God has answered all my prayers that he gets home safely... He is only 26 years old and he has his whole life ahead of him and I am so glad he will be home soon...I know his family and his GF are excited for his return!! God Bless our Troops and all of those who have lost their lives in this war!! They are truely heroes

| What a blessing. I hope your cousin gets all the support he wants or needs on his return. I have a friend in the British army and each time he's been posted to Iraq I've spent the whole time worrying about it. I know that he loves it and it's his job but let's just say that I'm much happier when he's posted to the Falkland Islands.
