Greg's Team in Iraq
Here is a picture of Greg's Team in Iraq... PING!
What a great crew! Thanks for the post, and tell Greg we wish all of them well!
They look like a fairly aged bunch.
Good heavens, how can you fall in love with 11 guys all at once, and young enough to be my sons at that. And wouldn't I be just so proud about that. What a great picture of heroes that is.
I'll sleep sounder tonight, knowing our Country's defenses are in the hands of people such as these.
God Bless!
. . . now this is a group of HOT HEROS!!!
I thank you and your son for so courageously serving our coutnry!!
. . . that would be HOT HEROES!!
Thanks you for sharing Greg and his team. Our appreciation for all they and their families contribute.........God has surely blessed America!
thks for the great pic. god bless.
I love a man in uniform! Bless you boys!
I forgot to ask Swordmaker to post that Greg is the one in the middle with
the "Beetle Bailey" hat on. This is the SPTT Team that Greg mentioned in the last letter that Swordmaker posted recently on FR. If there are any of you out there in FReeperland that hasn't read it yet, Please do so, as it is written in his typical style...Journaling over several days.
He seems to have a real knack for painting a picture with words that makes the actions really come alive.
His Dad and I are very Proud of him, his team and all our Troops! I do have to say, I'll sure be relieved when he is Stateside again, alive, kickin' and all in one piece! He's had a lot of very close calls! I don't call it Luck though, I call it God's Mercy, Grace and a lot of answered prayers. Thanks for all of your prayers for him, GW and our Troops.
I don't know what he can get away with over there but you should consider an account here for his photos and comments.

Thanks for the ping, Swordmaker. What a great looking group! I hope they know how fervently we are praying for their safety every day and how much we appreciate their sacrifice for all of us. It's men like these--and women too--who are making it possible for all of us to go about our lives day by day with all the freedom and privileges we have. And we know they are fighting to allow the Iraqis to have that same freedom--just to live their lives in peace. Wish we could have you all here for Thanksgiving dinner--it would be a great honor! We'll be remembering all of you.
Stay safe!
She should enlarge the picture (wall size!) and put it in her living room where it should be proudly visible. :)
Thank you for sharing the (hubba-hubba!) picture of Greg and his team.
Please send them my thanks for their service to our country!
Jenny, you can tell him yourself. Greg is a Freeper: jmpmstr4u2.
His mother is soldiersprayingmom
Thank you for the sentiment, and I wish I had a son as honorable as Greg... but I have to settle for two honorable daughters. Greg is the son of a friend.
Hehehehe... I already had to shrink it so it would fit on a 800 x 600 format for the web. It's pretty big... fills my Apple 23" Cinema display at 1680 x 1050. Shouldn't be too hard to make it fill a wall.
