in Afghanistan Is Looking Like an Emergency to Everyone But the Pentagon on The Washington Independent
My husband is on the 15th MEU and I don't want him anywhere near Afghanistan. That's not the intellectual or logical thing to say, but logic isn't really a part of having a deployed husband. I feel blessed that he's been floating around the sea for three months and hope I get to see him on the date they said he'd be home, which is November 4. If they go to Afghanistan they'll be extended at least another three months. My one-year-old son isn't getting to know his dad any better as the clock ticks on. I'm pretty glad I'm not the one making the decisions, because if it were up to me, they'd all be home watching their children learn how to walk.
