A Dear friend getting shipped to Iraq...

This morning woke up to my phone going off from a dear friend Jerry...it still makes me sad knowing he's getting ready to get deployed to iraq...I'm wondering if he's afriad going, or is he ready to go?...I told him this morning when I found out he was getting deployed to iraq made me feel really sad...he told me don't worries...I'll be ok!...sometimes I wonder why things have to be this way sometimes...Why does God have to send all these men, and women out there?...I wish sometimes there could be peace all over, and no war, and fighting, makes me so sad...from Sis Hubs getting sent out, and now my buddy Jerry...everytime my phone goes off,and it's jerry thats all I can think about...if he's afraid, and what he's thinking...=(  I honestly think was super shock to get the news...I know in time he knew he had to go...but I also knew from awhile back when the guys from schofield was getting shipped out, I remember asking him Jerry will you be getting shipped out too?...He goes I hope not...and this was like hmmm?...sometime ending of last year...right now he's doing his trainning at Schofield...then he has rest, then more trainning then he will be leaving...they will doing there second trainning in the mainland I think...and from there on either leave stright to Iraq or come back here then leave...all I can do is keep on praying for these men and women who are already in Iraq, and protecting our country, and as well for the men and women who will be leaving to take over for the ones who are there now...
