Carters mom- That is so awsome that your son got sent to do such an important job over there! You must be extremely proud!!! It's nice that he is going to get promoted soon though! I think all the soldiers deserve promotions after all the crap they've been through!!!! But good for him!

We watched it last night and was glued to the TV...it was very interesting and knowledgable...we don't any one if our immediate family in the military but have several friends that are either deployed or have family members deployed...I cried several times through the show and can not even imagine being away from someone I love for so long...but I believe that what these men and women do is so important and that the family members are so brave to stand behind them...I think about the soliders often and pray for their safety and especially for the familys that are left behind...it reallly makes me feel so grateful for what I have...I think there will be another epsiode on next Monday and can't wait to see it again!!! My heart goes out to all who have family/friends who so faithfully serve our country!!!!!

Melanie:

He's really hoping to get promoted twice while in the field - once because of his points clearing the cutting score and again right before coming home because of the job he will do. He has it in his mind that he will come home with several commendations -- A NAM, to mention one. Brian has been trying to climb the ladder two rungs at a time ever since he enlisted. I have no doubt that he'll accomplish whatever he sets his mind on to do. He is a very special son.
