You can think, better yet know, that he will come back safe and sound. You can send him yummy treats while he is there. You can be there for your BF while he deals with his dad being gone. You can plan a great cake for the party when he comes home! 
Thank you...I'm just in shock right now...I just got the call...I had a friend that did go over there and didn't come back...
Just got another call from BF...update...His dad won't be leaving until October/November...
i plan on making tons of cookies...with american flags painted on them...i think that would be totally cool...i'm so shocked right now...i just messed up my cake...ugh...i was supposed to use 2 cups sugar and 1 3/4 cup flour...wasn't paying attention and i used 2 cups sugar and 2 3/4 cocoa...i forgot to double the sugar also...now i have to throw it all out...
MY DH and I are both former Marines and unfortunantly this is part of the gig. Even when out of the military if you had a very special job as a specialty when in they can call you back.
I have friends over there too, most have come back home and a few were not so lucky. There is really nothing you can do but pray for his safe return as well as the others serving. Write letters and send emails frequently too. Unfortunantly, we never see the good news that happens just the bad. I have friends that have helped to re-build schools and feed the starving yet no one ever hears of this.
I know that anyone going to war is tuff, trust me and any other military member when they say that. Keep your faith and stay positive. PM me when he deploys and I will add him to the military prayer list. Best wishes!---melissa
ty melissa...i too come from a military family...my BF works with veterans...this is so hard...but i know he will come back...
i also know of the good stuff...my best friend whose more like a brother helped put in a water line...and did some other great things over there...i wish they would show more of this stuff and no so much of the negative...
Here! Here! It's amazing how different the mind set of the American people was when the media wasn't allowed to report ALOT of the things that they deem "need to know" now!
yes it's unfortunate...so many of our soldiers are over there...both male and female...that have so much good...most american's don't even know what it was trully like over there...i know some...but do not know all...i do not want to know all...but we should be proud of those that keep our freedoms free...and stop bashing someone who only thinks he's doing what right for his country...whether u like him or not...he's our commander in chief...we all should be greatful...that we don't have dictators like hussein...castro...and so many others...
i was once told i'm wise beyond my years...i only recently turned 25...my family is amazed what comes out of my mouth...i just know what i believe in...stand for...and i pay attention to the world around me...i only have a HS diploma...so if one person...can stand by for what they believe in and be so wise...shouldn't the rest of the american population be as equally wise???learn to get along...stop holding riots...and protesting at funerals???
