...and How Did YOU Sleep Last Night???

[TwinMom7]

I don't think I'll EVER complain again about not being able to sleep at night...

 

[Pam]

Wow - that's humbling!

 

[figmentvi]

Bless their hearts.......I hope that they can at least have pleasant dreams.

 

[nativetxn]

YIKES! Bless their hearts. I don't think I'm going to complain about laying awake in my comfortable bed most of last night.

 

[TwinMom7]

Hey Figment!! Spent a wonderful week on your beautiful island in November.

Here's DH and me during our get-away to the Virgin Islands, before our lives became absorbed with Iraq.

Goodness! The troops really are so brave and they are so willing to put up with these horrible conditions to keep us all safe and free the people of Iraq. God bless them all!

 

[figmentvi]

Hey there Patty !!! Well when this is all over, you and DH need to come back and visit our islands again !!!!

BTW......Nice picture!!!

Thank you for sharing these pictures. I think everyone should know just what our troops are going through. I can't even begin to express how proud I am of all of them and how grateful I am to them.

 

[Cthia]

Wow the conditions they are going through to keep us safe and protect our freedom.

Thank you for sharing those pictures. It makes you appreciate what you have and what they are sacrificing for us.

At least when we can't sleep we can turn on a TV! I can't imagine how they can go "full force ahead" when they have to sleep in those arrangements.

I think I need to go and send our more Care Packages!!! Those pictures really makes me apprecaite what those Brave Soldiers are doing for us!!! God Bless them!!! That's a great picture Patty of you and dh!!!

When I can't sleep I usually come DIS.

Thanks for sharing these pictures Patty. Amazing what they have to go through. Let's home it will be over soon and they can be home in their own beds (and if they don't want to get out for a week who can blame them).

 

[cgcw]

OMG. I need to share these with my family and say a special prayer tonight for all that we have. What a humbling sight!

 

[MelanieC]

Poor guys! My dh really has it easy compared to that. I feel for them. I bet they are so tired that they basically pass out.

Oh my.

I will never complain again about a restless night.

God Bless these men and women.

Someone sent this to us as a slideshow. DH said it looked familiar . He said that he and his driver slept during the GulfWar sitting up, in flak vests in his Humvee. Some better than this. He did say it was hard for him to sleep as he knew as soon as he did, someone or something would wake him up. Kind of like when you have a newborn! He got about 2 hours rest a night during the 4 day groundwar. Wonder how much these guys are getting ?

 

[Pooh93]

Thanks for making me realize what I take for granted.

 

[Bunchkin]

Oh my!! I'll never complain again about what a bad nightssleep I got due to one of my children waking me during the night. That is nothing compared to what those pictures show!!!

 

[Mishetta]

Boy...don't you wish you can offer them a big fluffy pillow with a nice comfy mattress under some silky smooth satin sheets & a nice warm fuzzy blankie? That's what they deserve anyhow! Every one of them!

God Bless them!

I was looking at the soldiers to see if I recognized any feet or anything, lol, but then I noticed from their uniforms that they are probably British (the camo looks like british camo to me but I'm certainly no expert) so I quit looking for anyone familiar. My heart really goes out to these guys and what they are going through. I'll be glad when they are all home and can sleep in their own beds.
