I got a card from Afghanistan.
I hope he comes home safe after his 12 15 months.

Hey Frank. Happy Father’s Day to you! I’m going to try to write a post, although I probably won’t be able to do it today because of work, that talks about Father’s Day with consideration to the many fathers who have children serving overseas.
It will also include some updates on my post about Michael Cleary, the soldier I wrote about a week or so ago.

Happy Father’s Day!
We all hope he comes home safe.

Thanks.
He called today. It was the middle of the night for him, but he works the night shift.
He sounded bored as hell, which, given his situation, certain beats the alternative.
