| My 22 year old niece arrived in Baghdad yesterday to teach English. She is a vollunteer with a non-profit group that has a long history in the area (She grew up in the region). I ask for your prayers for her and ask you to be encouraged that there are young people who are not intimidated by either the terrorists or the nay sayers. |

my nephew is also in the region - he's USAF though not a civilian. She is very brave to be a young woman going into that area. It is hard to think we were that young and daring once too.

My #3 Son-in-Law just re-uped yesterday in Bagdad...then went out
on patrol right afterwards. He should be getting really short in
country though.
