Hawaii Army National Guard Deployment

Aloha Boardies o'mine

My boyfriend, along with 1700 of his "brothers" are being deployed in a few days. I have three days left with him before he goes for a year.
This is a very emotional time for me and I am very involved with his "process". So please forgive me if I have negelected the blog.

If you go to KHNL.com you will see local news reporting of the Farewell ceremony.
Also, at that event, representatives from the Guiness World Book of Records were there and we closed the ceremony with the world's record for the largest group hug!

The prayers we need for Steven and 1/487th Bravo battery is for them to stay stationed in Kuwait, (as opposed to going to Iraq or Afganistan)

Our citizen soldiers are so very brave!

love
Rose
