Dear deployment...

Dear deployment,

I really really really don't like you at all.  In fact, it would be great if you packed up and left my life for good.

Sincerely,

Anna

We got word today of another casualty - Major Paul Carron...  He served with John in the Headquarters Troop, RHHT - 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment. 

I don't know his family, but my heart is breaking for them.  I can't imagine what they must be feeling and the devastation that they must be experiencing.

Dear deployment,

You better send my husband home to me safe and sound.

Sincerely,

Anna
