tahoe- Lots of support here. You're doing a good thing.

As you carry out your work, keep your bearing and remember you're fighting for a good cause. You really are. Keep your head strong, encourage others, and stay positive.

May our good Lord be with you. He's in this with you as well.

An Irish Blessing

May the road rise to meet you,
may the wind be always at your back,
may the sun shine warm upon your face,
the rains fall soft upon your fields and,
until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Tahoe,
Like I said, send me an e-mail. I'll send you my address so that you can let us know your address when you get there. I'm sure more than just myself would love to keep in touch with letters and stuff you'll miss.

If you go to Al Fallujah or Al Ramadi, look up PFC Paul Herrick. My kid.

Best of everything to you!!!

RENO, Nevada (AP) -- The U.S. military is demanding the return of five howitzers that two Sierra Nevada ski resorts use to prevent avalanches, saying it needs the guns for the fighting in Afghanistan.

Alpine Meadows and Mammoth Mountain received the artillery pieces on loan from the Army and began using them last year to fire rounds into mountainsides and knock snow loose.

But the ski resorts received word earlier this month that the Army's Tank Automotive and Armaments Command at the Rock Island Arsenal in Illinois needs the howitzers back.

"I need to have them back in the troops' hands within 60 to 90 days," said Don Bowen, the Army command's team leader in charge of the howitzers.

"It's a very short timeframe to get them serviceable and back into the theater in southwest Asia. Afghanistan is the immediate concern."



Ooooooops, guess junior shouldn't have siphoned $700 million away from the Afghan war.
