soooo lemme start this off by saying that i love all of you and i am sorry... I am no longer coming home on the 1st. my new date to leave bucca is the 26th. one of the guys in my platoon needed to go home earlier. his son is currently in baghdad and goes home on leave in early september. if he left on the 26th he would not get to see him while he was home. they asked us today if anyone would volunteer to switch with him and i thought it was the right thing to do. im a bit depressed obviously, my countdown changed from 11 days to 35 ha. and i am sorry to the family, i know everyone was expecting me soon and had already made plans but things change ya know? ill be giving an explanation to mom and the girls later so anyone with questions can ask me here or ask one of them. love you all

You did the right thing and I am proud of you. We will look forward to seeing you in late September, and just think, when you get back there will be so little time left before you come home for good. And this will make it easier to go to Texas A&M and take a good look without being rushed! Hang in there baby!! We love you and the good you did for your fellow soldier will come back to you. I love you!
