Army News

so Micah had drill this weekend and they gave more updated information about his units deployment. it's both exciting and scary. Good news they won't be gone for 18 months instead they are gone for 12! very happy about this! and he won't be leaving until october instead of september which gives me another month with him before and 6 more months afterward. so thats awesome.
he found out where he'll be and what he'll be doing. he'll be in northern iraq and is going to be the line medic on convoys which is kind of scary because the trucks are one of the more dangerous jobs because of IED's and stuff. and i guess northern iraq is kind of a hot spot at the moment. maybe it will settle down in the coming months but still scary to know. pray now for protection of him and his unit awhile they are over, i earlt start won't hurt a thing.
some more good news Micah got promoted back to E3 which is great. a little pay increase and higher ranking is always nice. plus they said he will most likely make E4 before they are deployed also good news. so thats what he has told me for now we'll see what new things will happen in the months to come. love you guys
