Wow! Six months from now, that Marine is going to think to himself "I need to apply for assignment in Iraq again; I need the sleep." Only problem will be the mother will call HQ and take the assignment for herself!
Good for them - hope it all goes well.

The Hortons met while he was in the Marine Corps and she was in the Navy. Both completed their service and moved to Oswego, but decided after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks that one of them should re-enlist. Horton enlisted in the Marine Reserves. May God look out for this patriotic and greatly expanded family!

To: Chieftain
Heh heh! This guy just took on the toughest assignment of his life! I wish them well. I hope they have lots of help. He'll need to build a second house so he can get a little rest from
time to time. I'm 51 and my twins are 2 1/2. I'm just praying for the day that they are potty trained. Diapers alone cost 120.00 a month! Good luck soldier!!
To: TexKat
i can't begin to describe my gratitude to this family. Perhaps there will be a fund established to help them...
This, my friends, is courage - to fight under fire, then live bravely with the consequences of your choices. I want htem to know I cannot ever thank them enougth for what they did for me -and everyone else in America.
