Cool Another Newbie
Just want to say Hello, and introduce myself. I am wife to a still Active Duty 21 yr Vet, we've weathered Desert Shield/Storm (3AD), a tour of Bosnia, a Korea tour, an Iraqi Freedom tour (4th ID) and countless field problems and NTC's. My father served in both the Army and Air Force, for a total of 21 yrs, and my brother is serving as well. I have 2 boys at home who are constantly amazing me at 12 and 16. Both are in their respective school bands and do well acedemically. The younger son is suffering effects from his father's being in the service in many ways. Hopefully we will be out in December of next year, and while I will be happy to have hubby out, I am not sure I will know how to act, after being so closely tied to the military for 37 years!

Welcome aboard from New Orleans. I'm on a business trip and will be heading back to Chicago tomorrow. Too much good food and beers - damn this job is tough.
