deployment...
Well, apparently my boy is going to be deployed to Afghanistan.
He just checked into his duty station on Sunday and he was told yesterday that he will be headed there in December; before Christmas.
At least he'll have 3 or so months of training before he goes.
Keep him in your thoughts.

I will be relieved when no one son, daughter, etc is in the middle east anymore.
That would be great! I won't mention a thing. What do you usually send to soldiers?
Yes - this "war on terror" has gone on for far too long.
I remember when it started, my son was still living with me at the time and we discussed how we (the US) had no business over there. That it just seemed odd that we had started in Iraq, going after WMDs that were not there and killing a lot of innocent people.
I understand (to a point) wanting vindication for 911, but I don't agree how we went about it.
My ex-husband was in the Pentagon at the time, could see the debris coming at him from his office and was a hero (in my opinion) by staying by and helping bring bodies (some of them were friends) out of the building.
It was a horrible day, but I'm not sure that "an eye for an eye" was really the way to go.
Kind of ironic I'd say...
