Extend my thanks to your son.


When Bush made his speech on March 19 of 2003, my son had been in the Persian Gulf since New Year's. The Marines that his ship carried to Iraq had been on the ground for a couple of months. The night that Bush gave his speech was one of the saddest nights of my life.

I wish tonight's speech would make me feel better, but it won't because of Afghanistan. They're even deploying Naval officers to that region. : (

Man that's rough !! Mom and Dad both deployed at the same time that's a sacrifice that is a lot to expect . Good on you guys for stepping up to the plate
