Heading for Iraq

Thanks Tim, Jason and Carcassfan.

Tim, I sent Brandon your message about the calling card via MOTOmail. That would help alot seeing that old pops here keeps adding time to his rechargable calling card. I dont know where he finds the time to make all the calls he does, but he does it. Not home sick one bit...lol

Again thanks to all....

Carl

Just thought I'd give a short up-date since it has been better than a month since the last one, not to mention he called 5 times yesterday because he had heard through a different phone call that our area had been hit by 2 tornado's. No damage here, but some small damage just 10 miles North West of us. Now....

He has been busy lately with lot's of Duty. He cut the end off of a finger while working on a track and had to have it sewed back on, so since he is unable to do his job efficently they have assigned him lot's of Duty...He hates it but thats the military for ya. He wanted me to say hey to all my ball-pythons family and a big thank you to the ones that have sent him cards and packages. He appreciates it very much.

Carl

Thanks for the updated Carl! I hope his finger heals up soon...yeoch...=P

Carl, Has Brandon received my package and letter? I sent it on 1st may.


It contained, 2 dozen oatmeal rasin cookies and a batch of devil fudge brownies. Socks (Every guy can never have enough socks), A guardian angel lapel pin blessed by my local bishop, and an embroidered four leaf clover done by my own hand. Just a bit of the irish luck.

I hope he enjoyed them.

Just wanted to give a little update and share a photo that was sent to me. Brandon is doing well and half way through his deployment in Iraq. He met up with his cousin, Gunny Chris Jourdan. They are both stationed at the same camp in Fallujah and have made plans to meet once a week and have chow together. It sure boosted his morale to have his cousin so close. Enjoy!

Thx soooooo much for the update. Our prayers (and thanks) are with all of those in our armed forces.


I was thinking of your son the other day and was hoping he was was still safe and well. Glad to hear he is! :salute:

glad to hear he is still doing well. is his finger all healed up now?

I'm glad he had some family close. I know that has to be a major comfort for him as well as you. You and your family continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Wow, i apologise for it taking me so long to see this thread. I hope your son is doing good over there and that's awesome about being so close to his cousin.
