Jan. 10, 2007 - Our son getting ready to come home from Iraq!
Our son has been over in Hit Iraq since this time last year. He is an Intelligence Analyst with the Army. We are not sure exactly what he does as he is not able to tell us. He has been able to tell us that his intelligence has been directly responsible for some bad guys being killed and just recently his intelligence was responsible for some good guys getting away from their captors. Read this article for more information. His tour of duty in Iraq is drawing to a close. He can’t tell us when he is leaving but it is getting close. He told us that the replacement group will be getting there soon and then they will spend some time showing them the ropes. We think it will be around the middle of February, but we are not sure. We do know that he gets to come home for a 2 week leave March 8th.
He was able to come home for a two week leave this last June. He arrived here the day after his 21st birthday. This picture is with our dog Abby shortly after he got home in June.

He has found out that he will be assigned to a group in Fort Hood May 29th. Until that time he will be going back to the base in Friedberg, Germany. We are just hopeful that he doesn't get assigned to a group at Fort Hood that is heading straight back to Iraq. You would think the Army wouldn't do that but unfortunately they do. We really won't know that until he gets to Fort Hood. His attitude is great and if he has to head straight back to Iraq he is prepared to do that.
Needless to say we are very proud of him and are really excited to have him based in Texas.
