I am a 22 year old college student deployed to Iraq. My inbox is getting full of emails, so I thought it would be easier to keep you posted on my experiences here in a blog, and still have an opportunity to read your replies. Please feel free to leave any questions and/or comments by clicking on the comments link below the posts. Also, be sure to leave your name, so I know who has written and visited my blog.

Appeal For Courage

I read about this in the Army Times a few weeks ago. It is for service-members only and is authorized under DoD Directive 1325.6 and DoD Directive 7050.6. The appeal reads:
"As an American currently serving my nation in uniform, I respectfully urge my political leaders in Congress to fully support our mission in Iraq and halt any calls for retreat. I also respectfully urge my political leaders to actively oppose media efforts which embolden my enemy while demoralizing American support at home. The War in Iraq is a necessary and just effort to bring freedom to the Middle East and protect America from further attack."
If you agree, visit the website and let your voice be heard.

Oh I'd like to give them a piece of my voice, but I can't!!! :) I'm not DOD.

I admire you for YOUR courage!

I would second that. I admire all the military for their courage. The sacrifices you make are more than the eye can see. And yet, those that sent you there are now turning and running. I'm proud that you stand for what you believe in and don't back down from a challenge.

Stay safe and hope to see you soon.

Mr Wilson said to tell you "HI"
I came to talk to you at grandma & grandpas anniversary, but missed you because of the big crowd. But said they are very proud of you and what you are doing!
