Merry Christmas


American Soldier says,

Thought I was going to miss out on saying Merry Christmas? I hope all is well. I am doing great. Busy like a mouse in a maze but I have been in my ‘zone’. There is no greater feeling, atleast for me to serve this country.

So for now I must go. I will post when I can. I promise to catch every one up in due time.

Again, enjoy Christmas and have a Happy Holiday.

    I wish you a merry christmas from down here. For you and for all the US and allied servicemen everywhere.
    I come from a place were people seems to forget the real price of freedom and liberty. .
    So you are there, fighting for it. Carrying the burden and doing what is to be done to allow your kids to grow up in a safer, maybe better world.
    I will say a prayer for you guys, tonight. God knows I want to be beside you grunts, and maybe who knows..i could be there soon.

    Merry Christmas AS. Stay safe.

    Merry Christmas! G-d bless you and your family.

    There are three kinds of people in the world solder. Sheep, Sheep dogs(worriers) and Wolves. The majority are Sheep. The minority are Wolves (thank G-d). And between are the Sheep dogs. From one “old” Sheep dog to the new breed of Sheep dog, the task is worth it. To see the smiles on the faces of the children on this Christmas morning, knowing that we, as Sheepdogs, are keeping the wolves from the door is a thoroughly rewarding endeavor. Freedom is never free my brother. Thank you for being a Sheep dog. May G-d Bless and keep safe, you and yours on this Christmas day along with all the men and women on the front lines of Freedom.

  19. CJ Says:

    Merry Christmas AS, to you and Mrs. AS. Glad to see you post, and you have my thanks for everything you do.

  25. Julie Says:

    Merry Christmas to AS and his family. This Christmas was a bit different. The sacrifices of our military and their family members are not forgotten.
    We Thank-You so much and know we are able to have “Christmas” because of strong, brave people like you. People who will fight for the freedoms we all have every day. The words Thank-You are so lame, they will never be enough for the pride and thanks we have.

  26. Jessica Says:

    im glad your doing good. Thanks for everything you do. I actually joined the army 6 months ago, and i’m in AIT right now at Fort Lee, Virgina as a 92A. I am ready to become permenant party and evenutally be in Iraq. Not that im hoping to go to Iraq.. but to do anything i can to help out is what i want to do. I would be grateful if u could email me sometime (lilangel4286@aol.com) with what i could do to prepare myself in case of deployment there.. i hope everything is good there and have safe and happy holidays. thanks again.

    Isn’t it funny how a few months changes things?
    You sound rather excited and happy, AS- a stark contrast to when you left your guys before they left for the war.

    I like this AS *much* better!

    I wish you could have spent this Christmas with your family, but it sounds like you are busy and loving life.

    Merry Christmas, AS. And have a WONDERFUL 2006!
