Worst News Ever

Guess I am going to be wrting a lot again. Adam's been stop lossed. He is going to redeploy to Iraq this summer. Obama's new schedule has changed the deployment dates by a year! His deployment date got moved up by a whole year. He was supposed to be able to A Cap and get out this fall, maybe Nov or Dec at the earliest, now, not until next fall.

I am just beside myself. I have no clue wha to think or how ot react or what to do next. This sucks.

wow that SUCKS. what changed? i have not been keeping up with politics since the election, so i'm not even sure what obama is doing with the military right now.

I am sorry to hear that. A good friend of mine was stop-lossed and he deployed just two days ago. But keep your head up: it's the hard parts that make us stronger.

Hey girl, I just saw in an IAVA email that the Pentagon...

"officially announced they will be phasing out involuntary enlistment extensions, otherwise known as "stop-loss." The Pentagon also agreed to pay $500 per month to servicemembers forced to stay beyond their original enlistment term, which is a policy that IAVA has been supporting for a long time."

I don't know if that will affect you guys or not... but its still great news.

((hugs))
