As u all may not know i have an older brother named Donato L. i havent seen him in 6 months because he's in the A.R.M.Y.'s special forces and was only sopposed to be there for 6.3 months, well he called home today basicly saying he's going to war, and he cant come home until its over, and chances are he's not going to make it home. He had to FAX us his will and 2 hours after getting off the phone with him a military convoy pulled up and unloaded all his personal things that he had locked up at Fort Bragg be fore he left ei., his car, clothes, pictures, his motorcycles ect. But the hardest thing was waiting for my parents to come home, sit them down and tell them what donato told me to tell them. I mean he's 24 yrs old, has a wife and a loving family, just why couldnt this happen like 2 months from now or never at all so i could see my brother again i mean he basicly told me that the special forces wants to go behind enemy lines and he's the highest rank of his batalion so he goes in first.i stayed home from school today to watch the news and pray that Saddam exiles the country and he gets sent home, All i'm asking is For driverheaven to cros their fingers and if u pray, please pray for my brother to come home safely.

I hope he comes back to his family soon. I really want to say thanks to your brother and every other soldier out there making this world a better place to live and sacrifising so much to keep us all safe. I will pray for his safe return, may God be with them all.
