  1. my son Brian is a combat engineer in the army
    he is in afganistan
    he calls every other day just to say he is ok, alive and see you when i get home
    we have not heard from him in 5 days
    heavy fighting has been going on over there
    we are worried and his wife is beside herself with worry
    thank you
    Greg

    Im not religious at all.. but I'll say one too.:pray:
    And Im sure he'll have some 'cool' story of why he could not call when you do hear from him.

  11. thank you all for your prayers
    it has been hard waiting but he called just a bit ago
    he is ok, he can not tell me anything besides that
    and said that he want to go fishing in a qute place when he gets home on leave
    and said good by Dad, see you when i see you
    its very hard right now, but this is what he wanted
    i still rember him being this 10 year old boy, standing in front of the sign at the sault ste. marie canal with the castle on the side
    it said
    built by army corp of engineers
    at 10 he said i can do that ; - )
    at 19
    he had that castle pinned to his uniform, and i couldn't have been more proud
    i saved that picture, and showed it to his sargents, all they could do is smile
    he took top honors in his graduating class of 212 men
    thank you
    Greg

    Great to hear that he is OK. My son is in the Marine Corp. He's at Camp Pendleton now and his cousin is presently still in Afghanistan. It is tough when you have family in harms way, especially this time of year. God bless them all!

    Glad to hear Brian is OK. 40 years ago I was a scared kid in the army away from home for the first time at Christmas, it sucks! I know how proud you must be of him and how relieved your whole family must be knowing he is well. I hope he knows how many folks at home are grateful for his service. God Bless

    Greg, I am so glad that Brian is safe right now. I remember briefly meeting him 7 or 8 years ago when you took me parts chasing to all those little yards.

    He sure has grown up eh!! Keep the faith, I'm sure he will be fine.:TU:
