Nimiwae, thank you. I haven't been very worried about my husband. He is usually in the camp hooking up computers and working in the internet cafe..but this was a kind of wake-up call that everybody is in danger no matter where they are. My heart is still pounding. |

Kelly you poor dear. You have my prayers for his safe return. I'm sure all of us here at USM share in your anxiety. I'm an old Viet Nam Vet who remembers all too well the pressures put on our loved ones doring war times. Our country calls and we go. Frightened spouces living on pins and needlesback home. You, the spouses, are the unsung heros of our country. May God's Speed bring him home. Your friend Don aka woodshed |

Just talked to my husband. Thank God for instant message because we get to talk quiet a lot. The missle attack hit a tent two away from his...he was on his way to that tent to pick up a vehicle when it hit..shrapnel went through his tent..he found his best friend bleeding from a headwound and wrapped his t-shirt around his friends head to stop the bleeding...though he didn't say and I didn't ask, I suspect there is more than one dead or perhaps the injured were very serious..he seemed somwhat in shock still, he had to get off because of an upset stomach. |

God, I truly feel for you and I know how you feel. My husband was over there for six months and I don't think I slept all that time. He has to go back again for an entire year this winter. It's already giving me the shakes because it's worse now than when the actual "war" was going on. |

RazorTalon, he is HHT/1-10Cav/4ID--I'd read that about Camp Anaconda, about the missle attacks I mean. They've been at that camp for about a month and this is the first one they've had. I was really hoping my husband would make it through his year there not having to see anything like this. He has been very lucky up to this point. He was along the Iraq/Iran border for a long time where it was very quiet, but he was completly bored..than they moved just outside of Sammura where they caught Saddam, now they are in Balad marking time till they come home. He said the attackers weren't caught. |
