Rhodes found out about the motion to stay deployment from the late local news broadcast as she was leaving to board her plane to Iraq. She says so in the faxed letter. Since she was leaving to catch her plane, I doubt she had 30 minutes to write a letter. It’s likely that she called a friend or colleague to take care of it for her, which he did at 2:00 on Friday, 9/19. I believe CPT Rhodes’ plane had already departed for Iraq by that time, but I haven’t yet confirmed that fact.

Or she could also have written it on the plane. Or she could have written it at Dover AFB, DE or Charleston AFB, SC the typical jumping off points to the Middle East and Europe. Or in layovers at RAF Mildenhall, England or Moron AB, Spain, and then faxed it from any of those places to the court house. Those terminals have faxes. When you are flying military, you got plenty off time.
