Randi - Letter from Father of Son in Iraq - where published?
Edited on Wed Jun-16-04 04:55 PM by rmpalmer
She read around 5:45 - anyone know where it's from. He was talking about what troops still lacked, lack of training, etc. Appreciate if anyone caught the source.

2. Maybe her site has it
It's not always up-to-date--but try her site- they've been good in the past about providing sources, links, etc.

www.therandirhodesshow.com

Also a great play to listen to her live on the computer...

good luck

4. read this part
He and his friends are grateful — not only for the food and toiletries but for knowing they are not forgotten. This is a little war, and as time goes on, it and the names of the fallen float toward the bottom of the news. As one of my son's buddies has written, "The thing is, people are still dying. But now we are dying in garrison. We are sitting and waiting for the next rocket to land on our heads. We take losses, but nothing is gained. So what now?"
