Several of you know that my kid brother is in the Marines, and that he was sent to fight in the war. We had not heard from him in months, tonight I get a call and its him saying in his raspy voice "HEY" I was like DUDE where are you? He said " I am in Kuwait we are packing up our gear and I will be home in July"
I am so excited I have turned down a lot of travelling work, lectures and conventions simply because I wanted to stay near the Homefront for family. So After July I am going to start lecturing and doing conventions, along with performing. Those of you that were there for me in this depressing time I thank you so much for your prayers and support and bringing my kid brother home. Oh yeah, he said were are gonna have a heck of a party when he gets home. He has two weeks leave so partaaaaay. All of us boys (My other brothers) are going to pull out our motorcylcles and take a road trip together. whhhooooohoooo. I think we are all gonna get tattoos to. We made a pact to do that when he got back. |

Hey Reed,
I'm glad to here that your Brother's coming home. I have a friend in the Navy and his family still hasn't heard from him, so I know how it feels to wonder where they are. It's great that you recieved that good news!!!

I'm glad that your brother now gets to come home.
I also have a Marine brother over there, and it seemed like for awhile he might of been able to come home by the end of June. This changed currently and his troops are going home and he's being left behind for now though, but just so he comes home in one piece whenever I'll be very content.(Which I'm sure he will being a Marine and being with fellow Marines also. *big grin*) Again, I'm glad your brother is finally coming home from overseas. Sincerely, Mack Mack Magic

My prayers are with you and your family man. It is tough when you know loved ones aren't safe. But since we do have the best military forces in the world its all good. Please keep me posted as to when your Brother comes home.
This has been one of the most difficult times for me and my other brothers emotionally, because we love him so much and the thought of something happening was a very real thing. I am just so thankful that he was not hurt and kicked some @*^ while he was there. Please do let me know when your brother comes home. Reed I am proud very proud. I am proud of all the soldiers I am proud of the suport by our friends, family and those that expierienced all of this with us. |

My brother is finally back in the States.
He was able to come back Saturday night to his base in California. I hoping to hear from him soon, if I don't I completely understand. I probably will be able to shortly though. It is good though to have him here back in the States where he's safe(Although I know him and all other Marines can handle themselves)*big grin*. Thank you all for keeping him in your prayers. Sincerely, Mack Mack Magic

Reed and Mack,
Good to hear that both your brothers are safe and homward bound. Like Margarette and BroDavid I too wish to thank them for a job well done. I would also (as a former Marine) like to wish them a big semper fi. George |
