thanks for the offer, I may take you up on it.
I know I am the new guy here but I want to tell you as a Vet, the service your brother has entered is very much appreciated. I spent 12 years active duty in the Army. Now I am in my 10th year in the National Guard. What your brother is doing is comendable and something to be proud of. I have been to Iraq in both Desert Storm and various duties during Enduring Freedom. I know things can be scary at times not knowing but hold to faith that he will be ok. My thoughts and prayers go to your family as they do for every young man and woman deployed so far from home.
