Alaska

The latest and greatest from the home front.

When John came back from Iraq on this last tour........ Tracy was told she would be going to Korea for a year. What this meant was that if Tracy were to go away for 1 year, she would be away from the kids and John. John did not like this because........he is always being deployed to Iraq around Halloween until around just before Easter. That meant if Tracy were gone and John got deployed also .....the kids were up in the air possibly going to Grandmas house, for who knows how long........
Well, what they decided to do was to cross train and John would take a top secret clearance job as a courier of top secret papers. This means a move to Alaska........ for three years...

Well.... they figure if they went to Alaska, they would both be receiving overseas duty pay. They would get their overseas tours over at the same time and still be together and with the kids.

wow.........long way away.......... but maybe after the three years.... maybe just... maybe they will get to move closer to Grandma in Georgia?
