These guys would definitely rather be knocking a few back state-side, but I hope they know there are some of us back here looking out for them. God bless.

Most of your friends are unknown to me but since they are serving our country they deserve to have my best wishes and prayers and they shall have it. Nice of you to remember them! Happy Birthday Geezer, you I know a little. Greywar's is coming up soon also on the 20th. I wish I were able to be there to bake him a cake!

Happy Birthday to all!

Well, now that you've provided pseudosoldier with a little warning, maybe he can get some of the people together at work and sing Happy Birthday to him there...HAHAHA!

chipjr, Thanks... I was hoping someone would take that up but you are too far off. Pseudo will have to pick up on that also. Grey will probably be mad at me for this. Oh, well, it will not be the first or the last time.

WTF???!!! He's in the same unit as me and I didn't know we had the same birthday! (well, a couple of years apart, but still!)

Hoorah, Happy Fricking Birthday Marine Corps..........maybe I should go watch full metal jacket or somethin', Marines rock!

Greywar was born on his father's birthday...What a gift. Enjoy Full Metal Jacket. It is a good movie. We just watched it the other night on DVD.

My mother got me as a gift on her birthday. Not too thrilled though, I kept her out of church that night. I'm glad she forgave me. That's kind of weird about greywar and SPC Nbs having the same birthday, too. I guess I'll have to send a cake or cookies or something, with both their names. I'll try to remember to use real names.

Are you in a place close to them, Lady Cleve? I once sent a cake and it was mush by the time it got there.

They work together, and it's about a 15 minute drive..................any ideas? Faves of greywar's?

Sorry marines, but Army Combat Medic is a real man's job. Now where's my twinkie?

Lady Cleve, greywar is trying, (I think) to lose weight so maybe a cake would be a temptation that we should not thrust on him. He might secretly wish for a case of dark beer but that is not good for him either and would not be permitted on base, I am sure. Since you are permitted to deliver pizzas through the gate (I just read your latest blog about singing as you deliver ) just give him and SPC NBS one little slice?

Nothing secret about that.
