My wayward son in Iraq

Hi everyone,

Got a call from Corey today finally and he’s doing fine! He called me today at work around 11:00 a.m., It was 7:07 p.m. where he’s at. Right now he’s not so sure exactly where he’s at, but they go to Samara sometimes. They do patrols for 6-8 hours a day which he finds pretty boring. He said the locals treat them fine. He was trying to figure out how to work the email system but was getting frustrated. I told him to write when he could so I could have his address. He told me he send me something and I said “what, a jar of sand?’ and he said “maybe a rock”. I told him I’d get anything his unit needed such as baby wipes, toothpaste, etc. but he said he can get it all there. I then told him well, I’ll send all the guys some homemade cookies but he said he’d keep them all for himself. *rolls eyes*. He’s staying in some sort of trailer like you see on trains? I guess like a box car maybe. There are four guys in it and it has air conditioning which is great as I thought he’d be in a tent. He may be home sometime in January. He hasn’t seen any combat action yet and sounded kind of disappointed. That’s my boy…

Thanks to all of you for your prayers for his safe return. Love you guys!

*hugs* Penelope



I think this may be where Corey said he was at. Just under Tikrit, along the Tigris River, about an hour North of Baghdad.

"Seen any combat?"

"I've seen a little... on t.v.!"

Hopefully he doesn't see any combat, but I guess it is common for him to want to be in "the mix of things".
