I received a letter from the depths of the sea

Posted on 03/23/2003 5:45:23 AM PST by submarinerswife

I taped the President's speech last Monday night in time to send it to my husband via a mail drop. I received a letter back from him yeterday. He said that Pesident Bush made the case very clear and he is wondering if a majority of the public was behind him, that every man onboard was.

My husband is deployed on a Trident Sub right now and with very limited communication. This was an unscheduled letter drop.

In your time on FR have you discovered the Canteen thread? A new thread is put up each day .... and you can get on a ping list so you can find it easily each day.

It's a great thread that is especially to support our military. If your husband has internet access, he can check it out each day himself. I think that he would find it very encouraging, as would you.

Thousands of Iowans came out on Saturday to support our troops; while the pro-Saddam loonies managed to turn out a whole 50 to chain themselves to the ANG base gate and get themselves arrested.

The highlight of the afternoon was when several hundred family members of active duty service people stood up to tell us about their loved ones. Not a dry eye there, I assure you.

Thank you for your sacrifices, and send my deepest gratitude to your husband and his shipmates. They are heroes, whether they will admit it or not.

Welcome to FR. I think you will find FReepers to be like family.

Thank you for posting on FR and telling us about your husband. Thank him for us, for his service and thank you for your sacrifice.

Kayak, thank you for posting today's link to the USO Canteen Freeper Style.

I hate that the media portrays the protesters as significant when good Americans are out everyweek showing support for our troops but we do not get the news coverage those on the dark side receive.

The majority of this country supports our troops 100 percent and we pray for them continually.

Swift Victory, Safe Return.
