Afghan Update

Things are going well here. Here's a picture of me and my co-pilot Lemmons after my first mission, as well as a picture of one of my first patients. Missing my women back home pretty bad, but at least the Medevac mission we're doing over here is pretty important, at least for the guys we pick-up.

Ha! I showed the boys the picture of you in front of your chopper. Daniel said, "Wow, that's a big gun. Does he shoot dinosaurs with it?"

Awesome! keep up the good work. It's great to give back. The sooner it's all done the sooner you get to come home right? :) hopefully time will fly by faster than it seems.

About 4 weeks ago (or so) we saw a news report here about an Aussie soldier who had been injured but an American Medevac helicopter had picked him up. We spent the next little bit wondering if you had been a part of that. The soldiers are sure lucky to have you there!

So proud of you and love you so much. I just pretend that I'm included in the "missing my women at home" thought -- sisters count, too, right? I love you. Be careful!!! The boys love seeing your pictures.
