One Daughter Back From the 'Raq, One to Go! (Vanity)
Snickersnee

Posted on 07/01/2003 12:43:48 PM PDT by Snickersnee

Pleased to announce the exit of my daughter Alexis from Iraq after four months as a medic with Task Force 173d Abn Bde. Hallelujah! Now if I can just pry my other daughter (Heather) from her delightful job of hauling Class V (that's ammunition for you uninitiates,) in the Tikrit-Baghdad-Umm Qasr triangle, I'll be the happiest daddy on the planet!

Congrats on the retrieval of one!

Couldn't you keep those girls in the kitchen baking cookies like they are supposed to be. /sarcasm

Congratulations to your family and God bless you.

My sister-in-law just returned recently, but my brother will be there for some time, I'm afraid.

I know (kind of) how you feel.

Never mess with a female that carries ammunition.

Our prayers are with your family, and many thanks for their service.

My boss' brother just got back from Kuwait - many interesting stories, and, I am told, some cool t-shirts that cRATS wouldn't like much. ;-)
