YAY! My Marines are coming home!!! YAY!!

[Hawkeye]

They leave by October.
They're mail is getting "cut off" in Iraq on the 8th.
They are going back to Okinawa.

This makes me so happy!!

 

[Janice]

Wow, that is AWESOME news. I am so happy they get to come home.

 

[mac_obsession]

Thats AWESOME!!! I know they'll be much happier in Okinawa!!! Yay

 

[Hawkeye]

Thanks ladies

I dunno if they will be happier but they will be safer and thats all I care about at this point!!

We only had one casualty in the entire 30 men. There were originally 31 but then one of my boys got blown up in a car bomb

He's not dead just severely injured.

But at least he isn't dead and he's on American soil now so that makes me happy too!

Thanks for all your support ladies! *HUGS*

 

[Shawna]

Aww, I'm so happy for you and all your marines.

 

[Viva_la_MAC_Girl]

That's great news!!!! (( where are you all stationed at?? ))) Tell them TY for all they done!

 

[mac_obsession]

Oh believe me, they will definately be happier!! They get down time in Okinawa, which means, drinks dancing and ladies!!! And the little things, they dont get much of in Iraq that we take for granted - toilets, showers, and not eating dust!!!
Thats so great to hear they are coming out of Iraq. I have so many friends there it breaks my heart, supposedly spending 1 month turned into 2 years...

Yes it is a nightmare. But the good news is according to the marines, the iraqi's really dont hate us. They have shared so many personal stories with me that is touching.

I'm not based anywhere yet Viva. I am debating on wether I should joing the USMC though because I have so much respect for my boys. Which reminds me... I'm going to have to get a package together to entertain my boys this weekend! EEP! Well they gotta do something on the boat ride back
