My nephew
Just spoke with my nephew. He's a marine, stationed at LaJuene (spelling?) Anyway, he ships off to Iraq in January. He's coming here for a visit October 6th for the weekend. A party is on! He's bringing a friend. I told him I wanted to show him off so he's bringing his uniform. We are so proud of him. I told him I was scared for him to go, and asked if I shot him in the foot if they would still let him go. He said, "don't do that, I want to go." He'll be one of the guys riding around in the humvee looking for bombs. I am so scared for him.

Congrats to you and him. I think you nailed the spelling except for the a in La, it's Le. When I go to NC, I'm in a little town about 17 miles north of Jacksonville, which is the stompin' grounds for Marines in LeJeune. As him if he's been to Court St. Ask only if you're prepared for the answers that question might yield... ;) I'm proud of him too. I wish him, and you, the best.

Your nephew is stationed there and I just read about LaJeune in my (very boring) history book...need a "blog-break" here to recharge my batteries. Wishing the best for your nephew. We want pictures.
