At Christmas time, remember those who are away from home and wish they could be home instead of deployed






This time of year, when you are at your Christmas party and enjoying the company of friends & family. remember those deployed away from home. Also remember those who will never get the chance for another Christmas.....

Say a prayer for all those who go in harm's way. They keep us safe and allow us to enjoy the peace at home that all should experience this time of year....

In 2004, I was on deployment in Fallujah, Iraq......last year, I was in Kandahar, Afghanistan...Those two years were the only time I was deployed at Christmas and it made an impression on me about how much the troops sacrifice as all would want to be home on Christmas Day.

Enjoy your holiday preparations and keep the troops in your thoughts and prayers....

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL WHO ARE SERVING OUR GREAT COUNTRY.....YOU ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS.....THIS WEEK, AND ALWAYS.
