Good to have you here Linda!

I have a buddy in 10th Mtn. Div.

I was with 3rd Batt. 75th Ranger Regiment out of Ft. Benning, Ga... with your son's MOS I am sure he spent some time there. And it is the best feeling in the world to know the people you are fighting for care so give him my regards.

Linda- where is Caldwell? I was stationed at Ft. Sam Houston, but that's the extent of my Texas travels. Have friends in Lufkin though.
