In church this morning, an elderly woman stood up during the prayer requests and announced that her great grandniece is one of the 17 reservists (her sister's granddaughter). The reservist's name is Amber and her mother is supposed to be on the Today show Monday or Tuesday.
The elderly woman said the 17 reservists had just attempted to deliver fuel to another base. The fuel delivery was refused because it was contaminated. Upon their return to their base, they were told to make another fuel delivery to another base. The reservists allegedly refused. She said their equipment was old and they would have to travel through a hot spot. She also said that they were held under armed guard despite news reports to the contrary. She said she was there to tell the rest of the story.
Did anyone else get to hear a similar story in their church today? Our belief is we got to hear the DNC talking points in church today.
Well that makes sense; they were not thrown into prison, however; and it seems already they are moving about - but no doubt; and hopefully. . .being watched and perhaps they are disarmed as well.

Where do you go to church?
That would be the Amber who called on her cell phone and whined she was being held against her will.
If you don't mind my asking, do you attend this church regularly? Was the "elderly woman" a regular attendee?
Another matter, many of these mutineers seem to have cell phones. I know of a few people in Iraq and their families complain about the limited communication. How come these guys are all walking around with cell phones and can all easily make international calls? Wouldn't routine procedure call for the confiscation of cell phones for those being "held against their will"?
Well, you certainly got the "emotionalism" aspects at Church; but not all the facts.
