My son sent an email last night...and tried to call but I didn't pick up for some reason... He is very very busy with this increased incentive, esp in Baghdad. It does seem to be having a good effect though. Where usually there are plenty of bombings and such and several (50 or more) ppl killed (Iraqi citizens) each day, they only had 22 in the last week I think, that died. But I sure hope they can settle something sooner than later. I fear and I shouldn't... but it seems things always happen the last week or day before someone ships to debriefing... which is coming up for my son.

I pray for all our soldiers. I ask God to protect them, and those they love and those THEY love.
