[ stern, adkins, zepeda, guerrero, dykes, velazquez] 2d Anglico Motor T in Afghan I am a marine girlfriend, soon to be wife.. and let me tell you it's not easy. Right now he is deployed in Afghanistan, he has been there since Noverember.. he left the 19th and won't return as of right now the middle of June. But the one thing i have learned is there are no definates with the military.. Word changes day to day. He is going to be gone for 7 months. I know it could be longer and I am lucky it's only that amount of time because there are men and women who are gone for a year and some.. My only problem is we pretty much know that by March next year he will be leaving again on yet another deployment. It's stressful, always wondering whats going on, where he is, is he safe? When I don't hear from him for weeks my heart pounds and i hurt. Of course I would never tell him that because he has other things to worry about. He does call me when he can and we email back and forth.
