Before Steve left for Afghanistan, when we were visiting him in Virginia, I went to an Army Surplus store and got him a huge spool of parachute cord...this is some of what he has done with it. Very crafty...manly bracelets.
I love his plain phone! No frills but it has kept us in touch and that is priceless.
In a recent email he mentioned completing an intense medic course that will certify them in (CLS) Combat Life Saving. I think they had to give each other IVs!
More soon...
Steve 550 cord makes for really crappy scarves and sweaters. The i.v. bag things a hoot did cls in the army. hopefully your partner didnt drink too much coffee.
ReplyDeleteVery...manly...

Steve, I didn't know you were so clever with knots etc. That's pretty cool stuff. Your friends have some cool ideas for your parties when you get back home. Love, Mom
