Baghdad ER
Tonight Donte and I finally got a chance to watch Baghdad ER. I had TIVOed it but wanted to watch it with him. I have to admit that I was a bit scared, I know that this is the life that our men and women live everyday. I thought that it was a pretty honest look, I remember the incident at the PX, Donte was there when it happened.......I thank God that I have my soldier home and I pray dearly for everyone that has family and friends there, especially my military girlfriends that have their hubbies there. I say a prayer and a huge THANK YOU to all of those same girlfriends that have lost their loved one. Of Course this show coincides with the Army Times that has the pictures of the fallen soldiers. As I leafed thru Donte said "Pena's in there". When Donte was Deployed Pena was killed. I remember hearing it and feeling numb, I remember Melody telling me and it was like she was talking to me through a long tunnel, and I remember thinking how am I going to tell Nikky as her hubby was so very close to him. I thought of his wife, kids, and family, and finally I thought of the night that Blangger and pena came to the house and ate up all the hot wings and I smiled through the tears. I hope that eventually we can all smile through the tears.">

I was shocked when Pena was killed also. I have some pictures of him from family day (A 1-63). He was our FRG Liasion. In the pictures he's having a water balloon fight with the kids. He was so good with kids and the best Liasion I've ever worked with. Would you like me to send you the pictures...maybe we could find a way to get them to his wife?
