As a Navy wife I'm still scared, even though I know my husband's on one of the safest damn places on this earth right now (a fast attack sub) currently on 6 month deployment.

I bet you are. People tend to forget the families left behind. Every time you hear those first reports that are so vague, I'm sure your heart drops and your on your knee's. Just know that there are multitudes of grateful Americans who are also praying for your husbands safe return. One death was to many...we will lose more, and our troops know that. They are the bravest of the brave. American hero's. We are just so thankful they are serving under a Commander in Chief they can respect and follow!! It makes a world of difference to a Soldier...

Let me also add, that I know how hard it is for you too. Stay strong, your strength gives your husband strength. All my POW's said the same thing. Thinking about their wives,.. and if they had them the kids; kept them sane. Gave them hope and the will to be on their toes, careful and to live.

Let us know when he gets home K?? Freepmail me or something. Or post it on the "USO Canteen" thread. I'm here to listen if you ever need a shoulder, to support.

God Bless you,..and please tell your husband we appreciate more than we can ever say,.. his service to our country!! I think of our military every day. We pray outloud for their safe return every day. I hope knowing that will give you comfort. Because we are only two of thousands sending prayers for their successful mission, and safe returns.

FRegards, Art and Mary Ann
