Hey-
It was wonderful getting to meet some of the 109th last weekend, at Brothers, with Shelly. We had great fun with a great bunch of people.

Thank you all for taking care each other and our country.

I'd like to wish the 109th Medical from Iowa City the best. I'd also like to tell one person from the 109th medical that we miss him and love him dearly. He knows who his is. We love you and can't wait to hear from you. We miss you Dad.

God Bless, Allysa, Myka, and Penny

Lisa, Great website. I love all the pictures. One thing, my extension at the armory is now 300. Other than that it is great.

How is everything going? Hope things are going well. Say hi to everyone and let them know that I am thinking of all of you.

Subject: Deployment

My husband and I use to be in the 209th Medical Company about ten years ago. My husband had just moved out to California shortly before the Persian Gulf War broke out. I was activated, but due to medical complications, did not get sent overseas. We don't know if there is anyone left in the 109th that we may know, but nonetheless, our thoughts and prayers go out to the soldiers and their families. If there are items that any of the soldiers need, please let us know and we'll be happy to see what we can do.

Best Wishes,
