Deployment affects both mothers and fathers. Here, Cpl. M. Morales holds her infant daughter for the first time since February. She redeployed earlier this month, along with more than 80 other Marines from Iraq to MCAS Miramar. While in Iraq, they supported 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing operations. Thank you for your service to our country.

God Bless each of you that give so much that a couple of old folks can be free. We have four
young grandchildren that we get to see most every day. Even at our age we can't imagine not being able to see these young ones on a regular basis.
Cpl. Morales, will tell her daughter she was doing her job. We would like to tell Cpl. Morales that she is the apple of our eye.
In Christ, Paul and Sharon Smith.

Just wanted you all to know that im so appreciative on what you all do.. so i wrote something for you all to understand we dont forget those who keep us free.. so it goes as follows

.Are the unmarked graves at Arlington
And the others at the bottom of the sea.

Those men fought so hard for me
You can see it in their eyes
It almost makes you cry.

They stand so tall and proud
With eyes alert and hair cut short
They stand out in any crowd.

They have walked on foreign soils
And flew over desert sands.

All so I can walk in peace
In my homeland.

This life is their choise
They fight for our FREEDOM
And don't ask for more
For life is their GOD their
COUNTRY their AMERICA

What freedom means to me
Is the flag blowing in the breeze.

These soilders have felt so much pain
And many have died in vain.

I think of all the familys
Who will cry these tears
needing their soilders to be near.

And what do we gain
From all this pain

FREEDOM

For they fought with out asking why
For we owe out lives to these soilders
Who were willing to fight.

For to this day
In a far off land
A soilder stands watch alone
Wanting to be home.

They fight for my freedom
And yours to.

So when you see them
Know they fought for you.

It's gratifying to see not only that such positive things happen, but that they are being REPORTED.

I’ve tried to think it over and I guess this is just a rumor. I hate rumors that ruin private life so advise you not to believe it and leave your comments by yourself.
