Title: Last words....
Post by samurai on Nov 20th, 2003, 12:23am
   I didn't mean it to sound too somber, but Fri. night is my last night as a civilian. I am on active duty now, which is why I haven't been around and posting much.  Sat. morning I move into barracks on Ft. Lewis and go into lockdown. I may get some time for holiday breaks, but I don't know.
   The good news is that I have been pain free for two weeks!!!!!! I am getting healthier by the day! You guys really helped me deal with the frustration of my latest episode, and I can't thank you all enough.
   For those that don't know where I'm going, I will train here at Ft. Lewis in Washington in Urban Warfare until Feb. In Feb. my unit, Bravo company of the 161st Infantry Regiment, goes into Iraq. Probably Baghdad, definitely the Sunni Triangle. My battalion is to be a quick reaction force, ready to go after whackos that try to hurt our guys stationed over there. [smiley=bigguns.gif]
   I have given this site's address to my Mom, and she will post my address, at Ft. Lewis and when we go in country. I will be thinking of the great welcome I got when I discovered this site, and the great people I've met. I look forward to sharing the stories with you all when I get back!
   So, in closing, I will be around for a few more nights, and that gives time for a few last words.... [smiley=gossip.gif]

    I'd love to hear from ya!
                                                     Jason

Jason!

Been thinking of you lately.  Glad to see you checking in.  Now, remember, this whole adventure is going to be soooooo temporary you will wonder if it really happened.  Sort of like my recent neck surgery...........well, maybe you won't be getting pain meds round the clock like I did.  So, just forget that last part.

You KNOW that what you are doing is important and IT DOES COUNT!  For the rest of your life you will know that you stepped up to make a difference.  Not many achieve this distinguished distinction.

Go with God.  Go with the knowledge that we support you.  Go to make a difference.  Go, but come home quickly.  I salute and thank you, Sir.

Mike

Hi Jason, sweetie.........

Glad to hear that you have been pf.  That's GREAT!!!

Sorry to hear that you are heading out, but know that your service to this great Country will not go unnoticed.

It's good that you gave your Mom the website addy.  We will certainly look forward to hearing from her.  Hope she lets us know a.s.a.p. where you are.  When possible, we can even send you some "snail mail."    8)

I am so happy that you found this site.....and it's great that in some small way, you were able to make some friends and be able to cope with CH.  This is truly a special place.

Thank you, Jason, for serving our Country.  Take care, sweetie......be well.....and God bless.

Lotz of love and pf vibes from Texas

Take care and please come back with all the original pieces.
Remember God put those eyes in the back of your head for a reason.
Remember your ass is bigger than your head. So just because you have head down, doesn't mean your ass is.
I ahem forgot that once.

Be PF over there.

Thank goodness you have fended off the beast!  
This is quite a journey you'll be on.  Keep that warrior spirit alert  [smiley=bigguns.gif] so that you can make it back in one glorious piece.  

God bless you, I think you'll have more than a few angels on your shoulders looking out for you.   What are they going to do with all that mail you'll be getting ? :)

Lots of love and luck to you!!

Jason, I haven't had the pleasure of getting acquainted with you yet...YET!!!  So, you know what that means eh?

You do your job and get your butt back here!

So glad that you're pf now, and in case any thing comes your way, send it here to me. I'll take it on for you and fight that beast off. It's the least I could do for you.

Thank you, for your service. Thank you for protecting ME!! and our entire country.

God speed to you Jason!

Know that you'll be in my prayers along with all the other soldiers we have stationed throughout the world.

Hug your mom real tight when you leave, she'll need that for strength while you're gone. And I'm happy you gave her our addy here. Please invite her to continue to be here with us while you're away. We'd love having her around to share her news with us.

God bless and keep you safe,

Jason,

I hope I'm not too late and you get to see this.  Thank you for what you do.  Keep your head down and be alert.  We will all be thinking of you.

Being in a military family I know what it's all about, so be sure to send me your address both for Ft. Lewis and your APO.  We'll make sure you and your unit have care packages.  Sometimes, little packages from home can mean the world to morale.

Be Safe!  I do NOT want to see your name in the AF/Army Times.

Cat

Email me at catlind@cox.net with your address info.
