I was lucky when I was in the Air Force - I was single so no worries, can't imagine being away from my boys that long. Enjoy your girl when you go home man.

Thank you all for your kind words... I really appreciate it. I will do my best to separate my mind from this deployment during R&R. ]

For those of you that have been there, Bless you... For those that have not, Bless you!!!


You, my friend, are in nobody's debt! Some of us mop floors, others walk on them. We all have a part to play. All I can say is do yours without regret!

Enjoy the time you have with her Tonymac . . . because it disappears in the wink of an eye. Seeing the picture of your daughter laying on your chest on the couch took me back to that time, almost 13 years ago that I had with my oldest (13 going on 30). Soak it all in and enjoy every single moment of it.

TM, have a great R&R. Hold the little one and squeeze the big one. You deserve it.

My thanks for your sacrifice.
