News from Iraq!

Trey was able to call yesterday and he sounded wonderful. He is getting all of his mail and he asked me to thank you all for writing and to keep it up! Things are going to slow down for him during the next couple of weeks and he will try to respond to everyone.

He says the weather is cool there now, but as far as amenities go, his living arrangements are far superior to that at 29 Palms. Can you believe that? He says the food is great and they have cable television in all of the living quarters.

He has been able to interact with some of the local people and says the Iraqi children are a hoot! He was taught a enough arabic that he is able to communicate with them and they have a good time with them when they are out.

Letters sent through Motomail are the best way to communicate with him right now. If you need help setting up an account, please let me know. The packages that we sent took less than 2 weeks to reach him and everything arrived in good shape - if you would like to send a care package, please do. Keep in mind that there items that they are not allowed to have. He says they are going through socks like crazy!

Thank you for your prayers and letters!
