Steve, my daughter turned 16 yesterday and will definitely never be a sergeant in anyone's army. But I completely empathize with your desire to have yours back safely, and soon.

My daughter, for different reasons, also can't tell me where she's going! None of our children can, really. Sorry, it's not the same thing, I do know where she'll be next month.

I'm little bit scared for all of them, as I'm sure you are too. Let's just hope we've done our best by them--not a lot else we can do is there? Take care.
