I propose a new group : the Yellow Ribbon Group

A group for DUers with loved ones in the military - currently or those who have served before . A meeting place to give support to each other or to just talk during these times of deployment . Well it sounds alright to me .

3. My cousin is in the Marines

but his term is up in March, so he's not being deployed. He's been in Iraq twice, I think.

4. I remember reading your post about that .

I have a friend heading to Iraq next month ---- and I have not been alright about it .

6. Yep, me and him used to be so close but since hes moved

not as much, hes changed a lot.

7. I'd be interested.

My daughter's fiance is in Afghanistan. I love the little bugger like my own son.

8. How long has the little bugger been in Afghanistan ?

9. He deployed out for Germany in September.

He's been back and forth between there and Afghanistan since. He is permanently placed in Afghanistan in March. No more timeouts in Germany after that.

We got to have him home for Christmas, which was great.

I call him my little bugger as a jest. He's 6'4 and I'm 5'2. :D
