After I just posted a day or so ago on "The Front Porch" thread (I think) that JR thought it wouldn't be until the middle of July, he called us today and told his Dad that the replacements are supposed to be there by July 2. When he leaves he'll be headed for Germany for a day or so and then he'll be flying into Baltimore. I had also taken off next Monday, so hopefully, we'll be able to pick him up by then. This is great!!!!

I'm unfamiliar to what you are referring to, but I'm assuming someone is coming home from the war. That is such great news. Congrats

That's wonderful news. Thank God!!!!

That has to be such a relief for Marty and you. I'm so happy for you. When he gets home please give him an extra hug from us to say Thanks for defending us.

God Bless

Thanks MrsChad! JR is my significant other's eldest son who is an Air National Guard reservist that went over to serve in the Iraqi war. He's a cook, so fortunately, he wasn't on the front lines. HOWEVER, we recently found out that he is currently in Baghdad, where there have been some fatalities.

Thanks Karan!
