Sorry to hear that your daughter is ill and I hope she is doing better. I agree that our own thoughts here at home can be hard us. I'm about to find that out or should I say I AM finding that out. My 21 year old son just left. It's 5:39am. He's a FM…
A group for Moms who have Sailors in Kuwait.

Corey ended up going to an Army base an hour from here and they are processing the passport for him. I don't understand it all. No one at his Reserve base seems to know how to do anything but of course that is just what I'm seeing from my end.
My daughter, the one married to the Army medic, is here in town w/ me today. She made a call to her husband and he said he did not need a passport when he deployed nor for his leave. This was just a couple of years ago so if something has changed, t…
