Got the word...

In July we got the phone call that Matt's unit was being put on alert to go overseas. We were upset but we always knew that was a possibility because of the war. We weren't given much information about the deployment except that it would be 12 months. So we've been waiting in fear of when the next phone call would come.

This morning at formation at Matt's monthly drills they were given the mobilization orders. July 17, 2009. Afghanistan. 12 months.

We are about to go into unknown territory. One day at a time is all I can do....
