Not for myself anyway... especially since I've been scarce for a bit now...
but anyway... a prayer would be appreciated... and not just by me...
This is a little article about my best friend, LCP Eric J. Fields, USMC...

To anyone that says our boys are over in Iraq opressing those people... voice up... I've got a little present I'd like to personally *hand* deliver to ya.....
Miss you buddy... come back in one piece....

Fields drives a Humvee leading supply caravans on dangerous missions to Baghdad and Kuwait. His driving is fast and tense, and he's grateful each time he makes it safely back to camp. "We work long hours during the day," Fields told me in a phone call from Camp Fallujah last week. "It's a dangerous place. It's not safe."
You got it from me. The soccer can be very important at these times. Hope the best for your friend and also ALL over there serving. The above excerpt from your article is a reminder of the reality that is faced everyday in Iraq.

They always are. What they are doing over there is amazing and crazy. Compared to what the public saw the first time, it was a video game. Now the US public is getting more of a realistic view of what really happens...
