Sep 2013

I spent the day trying to reach my brother (Navy Captain, reserves) who frequents there for his job and my son, AF NG who works as an IT contractor on Naval bases. They are both fine... my son wasn't scheduled for DC until next monday. I was so relieved, but I know there are 12 families out there who didn't reach their loved ones and it breaks my heart.
