Next step Captain!!!!!!!!!!! Yay!!!!:cp
I am so proud of Bradley, he was promoted to 1LT today! It should have happened over a year ago, but that's the life of the army. Things happen on THEIR convenience, not yours, we all know that.:wink
I am really sad that he got promoted in Iraq, so I wasn't able to be there for him, but I am proud of him nonetheless. I wonder who pinned him, . I remember when he was pinned as a 2LT, I was sooo nervous, it was the first time I met his parents! But he looked so handsome, I didn't feel like I "belonged" in the room with him!! All those army "higher ups" surrounded me, and I just wanted to shrink away, lol, but now I am so glad I was there! My baby, I miss him so much!! :depressed Things are really hectic over there. Worse than the news lets on. I only hear from him about every 4th day now, you could imagine why. There are things he can't tell me for obvious reasons, but I can tell by his tone, some bad things are happening, and they are losing people over there. I pray every day and every night that God will bring my husband back to me. I know his mission is a really bad one, but he can do it. And his guys can do it, and I have confidence in him that he will keep them safe. I know Bradley would never leave a guy behind, and I know he would put himself in front of harm's way to save those guys, and it hurts to know that, but it makes me very proud of him. :sigh I have never wanted anything so badly in my life, I just want them to all come home safe. AND I want the shitheads that make IED's to go to hell and rot there. :pissedOur men are there to help you idiots, and you bury homemade bombs to kill them, you sick, sick, bastards.:madwife
Sorry about the little rant there, I guess I just let my thoughts get away from me, but I know you ladies know how I feel, and I am so glad I have this place to come to....:grphug
