My Son Is Going to Baghdad

[dogday]

In 3 weeks. He received his orders months ago to go to Afghanistan and two days ago he had been designated to go to Baghdad and he is going to Fort Hood for training, which bothers me. I have been upset about him going, but relieved he was going to Afghanistan, but now they are sending him into the thick of it. I will at least get to see him at Fort Hood before he leaves.

With all of the news of Cindy and her great crusade, I have been aware of death and dying and I am trying to stay on the positive side of this.

What do they train you to do at Fort Hood? Anyone know? Any information would be appreciated. I am afraid they have pulled him out of communications and put him in infintry...
