I'm coming home... will be back in 6-8 weeks. I can't express enough gratitude to you guys... thank you for the personal support and for the avalanche of care packages for my troops.

Oh, the most important thing... All my soldiers are safe and sound, no thanks to our jerk-off battalion HQ.

Sounds great Lawrence. I'm sure there are a lot of people at home who can't wait to see you return. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I'm heading to Montana this weekend for a family going away picnic for one of my relatives. He just got his papers telling him that he is headed to northern Iraq. The whole family is in shock at the moment because he's 55 and in the National Gaurd. He's been in the National Gaurd forever and nobody thought he would be sent overseas to pack a gun at his age. He already served 12 years in the Navy on a missile submarine so nobody can say he hasn't put in his time. His papers said he is gone for 535 days with the possibility of an extension for another 140. His military pay isn't going to be near what he gets at his regular job either so his wife and family are trying to figure out what to do. Maybe it's just me but taking 2 years of family life from a man in his last 20 years of life is a lot different that taking 2 years from a man in his first 20 years. It's a damn shame when Bush and the boys find it necessary to send nearly retired national gaurdsmen overseas to do their dirty work for them.

Anyway, I'm glad you're coming home Lawrence and wish you godspeed.
