Hi, Allegra! Thanks for stopping in again! Are you still pumped up about the elections Sunday?! That was the most amazing day, and the pictures we've seen on all the many threads here have been so touching.
Yes, that was so exciting and a day I'll never forget. To be here for that was phenomenal and exceeded all of our expectations.
I've seen many inkstained fingers since the Iraqis have been allowed back on base. (We were on total lockdown during the election.) They are proud to show them to us.
Freedom is one of the most precious things in life and to see a formerly oppressed population exulting in gaining its liberty really makes me appreciate what we, as Americans, have had all along.
