Danny left today for Iraq. I am feeling melancholy. However, I know I will cope and eventually he will be home. I have the rest of this month and a week into May to get myself ready for boot camp. After boot, its off to Corps school. So getting my new career started will be the solace that fills the void that Danny's attention occupied when he ( Read more... )

I'm a friend of some LJ friends of Danny's...Danny and I have never met though we exchanged a few emails having both been at Balboa. I deployed to Iraq twice when I was on active duty (I am now working as a civilian contractor at the hospital ( ... )

Hey Kiddo,

Thanks for your story and the words of engouragement. It's always great to know that I am not alone in the world. I'm glad that Danny has been able to develop a good group of friends and correspondences. I have no clue what its like being on his side of the gate. Yes, with boot and corps school, I will be pretty occupied. Alas, my dreams of holding him again, are what will be making my rough days there a bit sweeter.

What was your military experience like? I bet Brian is much happier with you out of the Navy. What do you do now at the hospital? Where did you row? What seat?

I spent 24 years in the Navy, and spent nine of them with Marines...I enjoyed my time, and would have stayed in a few more years had they not been planning to send me back to Iraq (twice was enough!) I am an emergency physician, and I currently work in the ER at Balboa ( ... )

did you go on the website I sent you? I still can't access my gmail account. The compter access sucks here. I really want to call home but I do not have one of the phone cards for the phones here it is required to go on to that website and purchase it there. I am really starting to get upset with all of this BS with our computers and phone systems. I think that it is crap.

Well I miss you and hope to talk to you soon.

Hi Kevin,

Sorry to be popping in on your personal journal. Before I make introductions, I just wanted to say that I couldn't be happier for you and Danny. He is such a genuine, sincere man and I'm delighted that he's found a person to share his life with.

My name is Tiffany. I met Danny not quite two years ago, via LJ. He and my boyfriend were deployed to Iraq together. Danny also participated in my not-for-profit group that provides friendship and encouragement to overseas military personnel.

Anyhow, just wanted to say a quick hello. Please don't hesitate to let me know if there is anything you need. Deployments can be excruciating and I'm sure you are both counting the minutes until he returns.

Warmest wishes,
Tiffany

PS. Is there a snail mail addy for Danny? I've promised him some home baked goodies in a care package. I know he's having trouble with e-mail access, so I thought I'd ask here. If you're comfortable giving that out, I can be reached at my e-mail, balloonsstreamers @ yahoo.com.

Hey there. I am so sorry it has taken me this long to respond. Thanks for the kind words. Danny and I are very happy and I think we consider each other very fortunate to have found one another. You are correct in stating that deployments are hard on people. This is my first (hopefully not of many).

I would be so cool if you could send him a care package. Here is his address:

HM2 Danny Lee Douty
1st BN 4th MAR H&S CO
Unit 40250
FPO AP 96426-0250

It's so awesome to see that he has so many friends that support him. I hope that you and your boyfriend are doing well. Thanks again.

Kev
