Happy New Year, are you coming home soon?

I just wanted to wish you all a Happy 2013 and wondered how many service men and women will actually be coming home in 2013?
I know the UK is hoping to pull the majority of serving personnel out this year, and I bet their families and friends are glad of that.
What will you do on your return I wonder? Perhaps all ex military living within traveling distance of each other, should consider pooling their hard learned skills and starting up in business together.  That way, they can offer their skills and moral support to each other after being in a hostile world that only they can understand.
Let's hope it will be a more peaceful and safer year for us all.

Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen

Serving in any branch of the military in any part of the world means being away from home and family at some point in the year.
Soldiers, sailors & air force personnel, all face this at some time in their career.
It's not easy on them, and it's not easy on their family and friends, but in these days of  mobile multi media, it's much easier to keep in touch.
However, when a special holiday arrives, such as birthday, wedding anniversary, easter, christmas, thanksgiving and July 4th, how great it is to be able to send a greeting card to let them know you're missing and thinking of them.
I think most people would be surprised just how many of these manly service folk keep hold of their greeting cards long after the event.
It's just nice to have something tangible to take a peek at from time to time isn't it!
Happy holidays
