Paul is "OK"
« on: April 09, 2009, 12:15:00 AM »
All we have for certain is that Paul "was treated and released" and returned to his duty station at a forward "observation" post.  No actual word from Paul.

Thanks to all of you who expressed your concerns and/or offered up a prayer for his safety.  If all goes as planned he will be rotated Stateside in late June.  Don't know yet what is instore beyond that.

If he's already back at his duty station, he's fine.  Which is really good news.  If ya do talk to him, tell him plenty of former service folks are wishing him well.


And same goes for you, Grandpa.  I think the only job more stressful than being a soldier is being a soldier's spouse or parent.    =D

Good news, grandpa. Glad to hear it.

That's good to hear.  I am sure you'll hear from him soon, too.

Glad to hear it.  And please do tell him him that we at APS thank him for his service.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

Glad to hear it, but I have to admit that, before I opened the thread, I didn't understand why anyone cared about a vegan ex-Beatle.

I'm glad he's OK but that don't mean I quit praying for him.
Politicians and bureaucrats are considered productive if they swarm the populace like a plague of locust, devouring all substance in their path and leaving a swath of destruction like a firestorm. The technical term is "bipartisanship".
