Just found out.....

[bvilchez]

That I'm headed back out again for a year....this time to the 'Stan. To make it worse my wife and I might be expecting another lil one. If so that would mean I will have missed both of my children's actual births. Its just crazy but I guess I have to do what I have to do. The worse part is seeing her eyes swell with tears when I told her and her trying to be strong. That sh*t ate me up inside.

Damn, Jay. I'm really sorry to hear that. You be safe over there and if the wife needs anything while you're gone, let me know. Even if it's just a phone call to make sure she is doing OK.

Jay thank you for your dedication to the Corps brother...If she needs something or if there is anything I can do to make things a bit easier for you both let me know.

Semper Fi,

Hang in there brother and thank you for your service. Go get some bad guys for us

[BlackDog]

Wow, that's got to be tough. I'm sorry this is happening at such a difficult time for your wife. Doesn't make it any easier for you, either, to know whe's home alone.

I almost missed one of my kids births when I was working in England, but made it home in time.

Best wishes to you, brother.

The fact that your oath of service takes precedence over these very special times of your life just goes to show what kind of people we have protecting our freedoms.

Major salutes to you and your brothers and sisters serving for your sacrifices.

Stay safe and know we are praying for you and your family's happy and safe reunion.

Jay, I am sorry to hear you must be away from home and loved ones again. Your dedication to the Corps and our country go above and beyond. I know you will treasure the remaining time you have in your new home and be comforted in the thought of what will be awaiting you upon your return. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

[massphatness]

You're in my thoughts, brother.

[longknocker]

Thoughts & Prayers are with you, Brother!

[Blueface]

Sorry to hear that.
May you be blessed, protected and returned home safely to your family.
Thanks for serving our great country.

Can't imagine the emotions you must be feeling....take care of yourself, be safe, and come home soon! Prayers your way and thanks so much for your service!

My brother almost missed his own wedding because of his service, but wouldn't have changed a thing about it. He did what he had to do and what he signed up to do. Sounds like you are to.

I can't thank you enough for the things that you do and the sacrafices that you make. You and your family will be in my thoughts.

Thank You, I'm proud to have dedicated citizens like yourself serving our country. We (the general public) rarely know or even consider the spouses, parents and loved ones of the soldiers and their sacrifices. You, willingly and knowingly made your commitments for your own reasons. The families of the soldier are often left behind clinging onto a commitment they had no say in. To those families that make this sacrifice, I will forever be grateful and indebted to.

It is not just the soldier for whom we are indebted to.

Be safe, be strong and hug your family tightly every chance you get !

Thank You,
Chuck

Sorry to hear Jay but FWIW, I appreciate the many sacrifices you and the brave men and women or our United States Armed Forces make each and every day. You my friend are a hero and what better a legacy to pass on to your children. Thoughts and prayers sent for your safe return. THANK YOU!
