Macade is being deployed!



So Macade spent the better part of the morning at Camp Williams being poked with all sorts of good stuff to prepare for his deployment. The word today is that he will spend this weekend with his unit and then report on Wednesday for FTX. (Field training exercises). It sounds like he will be at Camp Williams for a couple of weeks and then come home for a few days before leaving for Wisconsin. He will have even more info by the end of the weekend. He is going with a SAPPER unit? I am not sure what it stands for but it is the big bad unit to not mess with I guess. It is a full combat unit and he will be right in the thick of things. He needs all the support he can get right now and throughout the next year. We are asking that only positive and uplifting words come his way. (And ours) He is anxious to get going and I am fairly certain that there is something good in whatever they poked his arm with this morning, because he is ready to go! Thanks to everyone for supporting our family.
ps I will also resume posting on his blog 1armyguy.blogspot.com
