Hey para I agree 100 percent. I definatley do not want to be there for longer then I have to be after I pick hubby up. However Yellow ribbons and signs would not be time consuming for the troops who just want to get home. HA HA HA HA HA.. everyone. I ask for serious and you give me this...

Okay Ladies and Gentlemen I would love to hear some ideas. Here is the situation, Camo, Military Granny, Pea and myself are on a Welcoming home Committee for our Troops overseas. We would like some ideas of what they may want to see. We already have some great ideas but we would like some input...

Awesome news ;D Thanks Military Granny

I personally have such policy. My company pays half the premiums and I pay the other half. Does this mean I want my husband to profit from my death. No I don't but I want to insure that God forbid something happens to me that my children and my husband are taken care of. Is it more money then...

I can't disagree with you that our military needs more equipment. But as some members have pointed out to me on this site. You can have the top of the line equipment and yes it will save life's however life's will still be lost no matter what you have. Yes I agree it is the army and people die...

Okay I am a little confused ( which is not a new thing) However this has to be taken down but yet we let other true racists groups put their trash on the internet and no one is jumping all over them. There defense is Freedom of speech. So this liberty only applies to certain groups. An example...

All this is just silly nanny state busy work. If your life is worth something to someone, insure it. That's what SISIP is for. Britany, we are not talking about insurance. This is an added Benefit ( lack of a better word) This was put in place for the families and their children to help adjust...

I don't know how to answer this so I do not offend anyone. I agree with Geo and I agree with Hot lips. Some of our fallen soldiers were the main source of income. Now you take that source of income away it doesn't leave much for the family left behind. Two years salary and some of the other...

Now that was a game.. GOOD JOB.... Bring us the cup.. GO OILERS GO

Thank you Camo for your post. It was an awesome idea from the other site :cheers: :cheers: ( that deserves 2 cheers he he he) I thought that it would be great on this site as well. Once again thanks for your input. I hope that with this thread will help others that will experience some of the...

54. Make sure that you have spouses Service number and Social Insurance number memorized or documented somewhere. This is easier for when calling the rear party or if you have any issues concerning pay or benefits. 55. Make sure that your spouse has signed all Medical and Benefit papers that...

I had the same problem with my car in Alberta. IF you have a state farm check them out. I went from 3400 to 1500. Good luck!

Okay maybe I am just sick and morbid :P I had to watch it 2x. I laughed the first time and thought.. Hmm did this person do this for enjoyment?

52. Another important point. Make sure you get your passport and your kids passport. If anything happens you will want to be able to lfy without any hassle. AS well is your spouse needs to sign the passport papers.

50. Your spouse will probably reveal some sensitive informaton during the tour. Respect this and keep it to yourself because of security concerns. 51. If the media contacts you and you do not feel right in speaking with the media. Just say "No comment" or contact the rear party in what you can...

Going on what Muffin has said 48. When they do come home from HTLA or from the tour, do not expect them to just jump right in to help out. My hubby said when he came home on leave he didn't know what to do because I had a set schedule with the kids. After a few days adjusting to civi world he...

My Brain is working.. HE HE HE HE 44. Do not count on dates for anything. Coming home dates because they always change at any given moment. Usually a 6 month tour means 6-8 months. So do not be surprised. Also do not give your children a date because they will be dissapointed if Daddy or...

36. This is for members being deployed. My hubby set up personal messages on our computer through our Web cam. HE made one for mothers day, one for when the kids were driving me baty. He also made them for the kids. This helped with the separation from their daddy. There are days that my...

35. Keep yourself busy and go on with life. Do not let the tour be your life.

GO get them Troops :salute: Keep your head down and your eyes up. Hubby keep your butt safe. LOL :cdn:
