I'm a big supporter of our military and currently have a bunch of penpals in Iraq. One is a former seminarian turned Marine and another is a priest/chaplain. I worry about them as though they were my own children! Please let me know if any of your friends or children's friends over there could use some support and encouragement. As a member of several online groups I know how much they appreciate total strangers writing and sending things to them, and I'm always glad to hehlp. God bless our fine men and women in the military!
Thanks, and welcome to FreeRepublic!
Thank you so much, Karen! I'm active with the soldiers, but some of the stories you hear, entire families disowning their kid because they joined the military, is so heartwrenching.
I sent you a couple freepmail regarding a submarine ping list that's being formed, you might be interested.
