wow- Lets really think about what is important

My friend Jason sent me an email yesterday. He is an army soldier in the band field. He used to be stationed with my husband. He is a really sweet guy. He was sent to Iraq, with the FT Drum band. ( they needed another trumpet player- someone Jason got "selected")

Anyway, it has been a few months since he left FT. Jackson. and he just arrived in Iraq a few weeks ago. He was very thoughtful to send an email and several pictures of what it is like there.

I cant describe my feelings. In some ways I feel like it is inevitable that I will never see him again. This young single soldier, snatched up to go play his role in the fight for Iraqi Freedom. Stay strong and come home.
