1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted February 15, 2008 1. DDz Quorum Posted February 15, 2008 ~S~ Pete M8, I to hope for you brothers safe return ! I have the greatest of respect for all the guys and gals who do our fighting for us. One of my best friends on Blue watch has just started a one year sabbatical to go to Afghanistan for a six month tour later this year. He is in the territorial SAS and is an ex Royal Marine Commando. I'll be hoping they both make it back OK sir. ~S~ Mick. Quote

Logos Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Yes Pete. Add me to the prayer chain. May angels be encamped all around your brother and his unit while serving his tour of duty. Logos Quote
Rattler Posted March 2, 2008 Author Posted March 2, 2008 Me brother just left this morning. Little bugger got his assignment changed - no longer in the Provincial Reconstruction Team (which stays near the airport at Kandahar) but now part of the Lord's Strathcona Horse (RC) battlegroup. While it's outside the "wire", I think that he'll still be very safe - he knows lots of the guys, and the Sergeant-Major is an ex-Brit buddy of mine and a Gulf War 1 veteran; he'll look after Derek quite nicely. Having all those Leopard 2 A6M's around is also nice - walk loudly and carry a real BIG stick, and all that! I hope to keep in touch with him as much as possible, and will post pics and emails that he can get out. Quote
Logos Posted March 3, 2008 Posted March 3, 2008 Ditto to Bad Aim. Big angels all around your brother Pete. Logos Quote
