Thanksgiving 2007 was a day of firsts. Spending the day with a few(thousand) of my closest friends and comrades. Had a great meal of Turkey, roast beef, lobster, shrimp, dressing, mash potatoes, candied yams and corn and that was the starters. The cakes and pies where great. Yes I tried most of them.
The only thing was missing was my lovely wife and my two boys. I did get to call them and wish them a Happy Thanksgiving. Next year I plan on taking the whole week off and cook.
Thank you all again for prayers and kind words. The support of the American people and others around the world have a great impact on our morale. We are doing great things in Iraq. Just can't tell you
Enjoy the weekend and be safe.
