Things have gotten easier over there as the Army has had time to add facilities, but nothing can replace that special treat from home!!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07102091211678671789noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5563281.post-49111379369060329512009-03-11T13:29:00.000-04:002009-03-11T13:29:00.000-04:00Agreed!

Sometimes I think the parents, the inlaws and the grandparents do more for morale in these conflicts than we can ever give them credit.<BR/><BR/>CH Carleton B.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
