Thanks, snugs.
I'm amazed that Gen. Myers is still on active duty. Usually they have "terminal leave" - more accrued leave than they will get paid for, so the serviceperson usually disappears well before their "final" retirement date.
I suspect that Gen. Myers is just foregoing the pay that he would get for those hours, and staying around to do his job until his replacement has been voted on (Gen. Pace) in Congress.
Whatta guy, whatta guy.
Thanks for the pic of two of my heroes: Gen. Myers and Rummy.
BTW, I'm exhausted. Been helping loading up vehciles for acaravan of vehicles taking all sorts of supplies and goodies to a drop-off point that they've coordinated with various Churches on the East side of the Katrinia area.
Since our grocery stores and Wal-Mart are out of most supplies and since the trucks (heading to grocery store, to Wal-Mart) can't get here due to the lack of gasoline in the panhandle of FL, we were asked to "shop" our cupboards, so all this is being sent over has been donated out of people's homes.
Wonderful work Truthy get some rest though it is not long since you were so ill but I am certain getting involved in this is good for you as well
Thanks for your comments .. it helps to know others have had to make that tough decision. I too feel that I did the right thing. While my mom is having some difficulty with depression, they started her on some new medication yesterday and I'm hoping that will help.
yes she's a great woman who show her pain when something horrible happens. that's why i like her: she's true.
god bless your first lady, FRiends!
