I heard of this about 2 weeks ago on FR, the military wives do a good job of keeping this under wraps until it hits the local news when it really isn't a secret anymore.

Just a reminder to those responding to this thread. DO NOT DISCUSS CALLUPS UNLESS THEY ARE PUBLICLY ANNOUNCED IN THE NEWS, as this one was. Do not mention friends or relatives who are called up unless the mobilization is definitely public knowledge.

Don't give our enemies the puzzle pieces. Ok?

You're right on that. It doesn't take as much as some folks think to figure things out.
