iraq: 12 Days of Christmas from Iraq from a US Marine's point of view - 12/16/07 12:09 PM

As many of you know Jeremy our son is currently in Iraq. His emails and photos are posted at Iraq Diaries. But he also loves to make movies and although he cannot post many of these till he returns from Iraq because of security issues he has been inspired to post his latest video made while in the field. Moved by the season and his love for Christmas he got the guys in his platoon to sing the 12 Days of Christmas. Not everyone was as enthusastic as Jeremy as you will see. But a great chance to see the morale … (6 comments)

iraq: Prayer before combat... - 11/26/07 06:27 PM

I posted this photo in our blog Iraq Diaries which are emails from our son who is currently in Iraq, but as it is buried in one of the comments I just wanted to repost just this photo as it speaks volumes about the young men who are serving in Iraq.

Jeremy, Malachi Even and Jason Mann prayed before each mission we left. Here we're joined by Steven Kaliszewski and in later days we invited another guy we saw reading a Bible. I also saw from later pictures that people were watching so it's good to bring people together before the Lord, whether … (7 comments)

iraq: Aviator sun glasses needed - 11/26/07 03:36 PM

        REPUTATION IN my line of work is a huge issue and plays a large role in your successes and position in your platoon/team. For example, if you go to a school to train and cry, complain, or give up then the people who see it remember. Your reputation precedes you and rank, though respected, doesn't mean a thing when you're a solid, hard working individual who goes out looking for initiative.
        Why am I telling you this? Well my reputation has been set as well. I have been in this Battalion for a little over 2 years and … (10 comments)

iraq: Soccer is a common language - 11/18/07 12:29 PM

As many of you know our son Jeremy is in Iraq. you can read his emails at Iraq Diaries. They see a lot of kids as you may have noticed from his photos. Recently Iraq did really well in an Asian soccer competition and for a brief moment it united the country as you may have seen or read on the news.
Well the kids ask Jeremy if he has any soccer balls.

So Trudy, has decided to collect soccer balls and small pumps to send them over to Jeremy to give out. Used balls are great and many people have some sitting … (9 comments)

iraq: Iraq diaries - 10/09/07 04:35 PM

iraq: Going back to Iraq - 07/23/07 08:27 AM

Well, we have been hoping he would go on a Marine Expeditionary Unit, or their posting to Iraq would be cancelled but it looks as if our son Jeremy is going back to Iraq sometime in October. Last tour he wrote emails regularly letting us know how it was, hoodwinked us for three months making it sound like summer camp, till we learnt more about the relaity of what they were enduring. Those emails were forwarded to hundreds of people who somehow got connected with him, including churches, NASA scientists, realtor offices, from all places in the country.
Well he is starting … (7 comments)
