    Second Tour in Iraq!

    So my little brother is a US Marine. Just got back last Feb the 9th (his 21 b-day) from a 9 month tour in Iraq. This Feb the 15 he leaves again for 9 months. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers.


    P.S. Thank you to all the men and women that do or have served in the US Armed services. We owe you all.

    There's never a way to adequately say thank you for all their service. I hope he comes home safe and sound.

    Us too. He had a close call last tour put him in the sick bay for 3 weeks. Had a RPG land 75' from him and the pressure caused from the explosion cause him to be knocked out and go blind for about 4 days he's back to 100% now but wow!. That black car pulls up out front to tell you your family has been wounded. Mom about lost her SH*& on that on. The shock wave did all that not other damage so we are really lucky.

    Thanks everyone
