You have a much better chance to survive in Iraq than you do most major cities in the US.

Are you insane?

What branch?

Army National Guard, Infantry!

-=bmacd=-

lots and lots of flipping out, so just tell her either way

 

[AmerDoux]

When my son told me he had joined the Army, I did not 'flip-out' or get hysterical. It did hit me hard though and it took a few days for it to fully sink in. As a mother, I needed to talk to him about it a three or four times and then I was able to wrap my brain around it and provide my full support to him. Communication is the most important thing. Let her know that you will contact her as early and as often as you can.

Best wishes to you and your family!
