    My Brother is being shipped to Iraq :(

    My brother, Jeremy, is in the Army, special forces.




    Here's a picture of him

    I ask you all to keep him in your prayers as he is being sent to Iraq and will be unable to communicate with us until December when he is supposed to come home for some leave time. He had email access for a while (He has been deployed for about a year now) but I guess they are cutting all communications off. He won't even be able to send or recieve letters. I hope he stays safe. He has a wife and a 3 1/2 yr old daughter.

    Stay safe, Jeremy!!

    OMG, DJ !!

    Tell your brother I said:
    Thank you for serving our country.

    How scary. I hope he doesn't have to stay the whole time. I will keep him in my thoughts.

    I'll keep Jeremy in my prayers and the entire family.
    I had a cousin over there for a year. He's home safely now. I'll pray that Jeremy is home safely soon too!
    My brother was stationed in Korea during the Vietnam war. Longest year of my life!!!

    Jeremy, THANK YOU!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    Please stay safe Jeremy.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Your brother is in my thoughts and prayers. As is all of your family and his. I know that it is really tough to watch your loved ones go off and fight a war - and I am very greatful to those who do this.

    A friend of mine's husband is in CA right now training to head over to Iraq. He's in the Navy so we waiting for his time to be shipped over. Don't know about the no communication rule.

    Hope your brother stays safe!!!

    DJ,

    Jeremy will be in my thoughts and prayers.

    What I DON'T understand is WHY more troops are being sent over there after Bush promised he was bringing them home. Just goes to show you that SOME people will do/say ANYTHING to get elected into office.

    Be safe Jeremy. We're rooting for you.

    Hey DJ,

    If you give me his address over there, I'd love to write to him.

    Rest In Peace Casey (Bubba Dude) Your paw print will remain on my heart forever. 12/02
    Mollie Rose, you were there for me through good times and in bad, from the beginning.Your passing will leave a hole in my heart.We will be together "One Fine Day". 1994-2009
    MooShoo,you left me too soon.I wasn't ready.Know that you were my soulmate and have left me broken hearted.I loved you like no other. 1999 - 2010See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
    Maya Linn, my heart is broken. The day your beautiful blue eyes went blind was the worst day of my life.I only wish I could've done something.I'll miss your "premium" purr and our little "conversations". 1997-2013 See you again "ONE FINE DAY"
