Update On Adopt A Platoon

I recently received an email from SFC Williams giving me some updates on the Platoon. He said "that it is hard for most of them to focus now because it seems like this deployment is never going to end, but they are doing well." I asked when they would be coming home and he said he did not know for sure. They are hoping to come home early but if they have to stay the complete 15 months they are already passed the half way mark and on their way to completing the mission. He did have some great new about some of the men which I have enclosed.

S1 Updates:

  • PFC Wang was promoted to SPC last month and his wife is expecting a baby. Also SPC Wang's wife got her visa to come to the U.S.
  • PFC Calixte was promoted to SPC two months ago and is currently in Baghdad waiting to become a U.S Citizen. SPC Calixte will be going on leave this month for 18 days to his home country.
  • PFC Chavez will become a SPC next month. His baby is really big now.
  • SGT Figueroa is married and his wife has relocated to the Watertown area and will be moving there in the next couple of months. Last month SGT Figueroa also reenlisted to stay in the Army for another four years
  • SGT Manning is doing well.
  • SFC Williams goes on leave this month. His wife and son can't wait for him to get home. He will be returning to the Fort Drum area for my leave. SFC Williams also reenlisted two months ago for six years.

SFC Williams said they have not taken any more pictures because the mission they are on does not allow them to have cameras.

Be sure to check out the website www.proverbialwomen.com/AdoptAPlatoon to view pictures and more updates on the Platoon!

Remember to keep them in your prayers! We want all the men and women serving this great country to return home safely to their families and loved ones. God bless the men and women serving the USA and God bless America!

Fill Your Home With Fragrance!

I have been studying some more information on the effects of smell on an individuals overall well being and have found some really interesting facts. A great website to check out is www.senseofsmell.org As a candlemaker fragrance and the effects it has on people interest me a great deal. One of the facts I recently read about is how the smells of both chocolate and coffee can help you get through the day at the office when you are feeling a bit sluggish. Of course this made me really happy considering how I love both chocolate and coffee; but then who doesn't! Cinnamon also has been found to have a positive impact on memory, especially for individuals taking test. So take a deep breath and enjoy the fragrances around you, and of course light a candle!
