You’re welcome! I was no Hero, LOL!

I was all packed and ready to go; I was with the 32d Light Infantry Brigade at the time, but Stormin’ Norman got in and out so fast, my unit never was deployed other than stateside.

I managed eight Family Assistance Centers for the NG & Reserve Troops for the next 2 years - this was the first time NG and Reserve troops were mobilized, so their families needed a lot of help. We also went to neighboring states to show them how to run Assistance Centers, too.

Now, if we could just get EVERYONE home and OUT of the ME. I mean, 26 years has been MORE than enough time, blood and treasure to waste over there!

I’m going to do some fundraising for the memorial. :)
