Deployment Date
It's now official. I'll be going to Iraq in 2009 sometime in the spring, although we will leave for pre-deployment training in the US in mid-winter. On Friday we begin a three weeks of pre-deployment training that will be our "Summer Camp." We will be doing some cool stuff, so I plan to write every day if possible.

I'm starting the novena (or a bunch of them) that this war ends before you're deployed. I'd so much prefer that you'd serve our country here in the States!
