If you all could spare some prayers over the next 10-12 months for the 38th Infantry, I would really appreciate it. My brother had his send off ceremony today. He will be in Fort Sill (Oklahoma) for about a month then move on to to Kuwait, and then on to Ballad (just outside of Baghdad for at least 10 months. He is a very special man, and little brother. Brave as I will get out.
I know it won’t hit me that he is gone until the first family dinner, function etc. and then I think all of us women will be a big ol puddly mess. and please say prayers for my step-mom (his mother) and my soon to be Sister in law. I know they could use them the most.
I pray for a safe return for everyone serving. God Bless.

I will keep your brother and his family in my thoughts!
I know how hard it can be-I had a boyfriend and a few friends in the army and it's tough not knowing.
Your brother and his family along with the 38th wil be in our thoughts and prayers. I am proud of every man and woman who are serving this great country. I am proud to be an American knowing that they are defending us.
He and the 38th will be in our prayers. We thank him, his unit, your family and all the military for the sacrafice that you go through for our freedom. Please know that it does not go unnoticed nor unappreciated. God bless you all and God bless America. Praying for the safe return of them all!!
He and your family will be in my prayers. Please thank him for his service to our great country!
