I have been bugging Michael for weeks now to give up information relating to their homecoming time line and ceremonies. I want him out of that damn country as soon as possible, and back on the ground in America. I like knowing how long something is going to last, and when I will finally be able to breath again, without worrying every minute of the day.
A few days ago, the Brigade came out with their monthly newsletters. In this newsletter, there were briefs from the Commander and other leaders in the Brigade. Here, they mentioned that torch parties were already on the ground for other units, and other units were actively preparing for theirs to arrive. For those who don't know what torch parties are, it is not a luau in the backyard. Torch parties are individuals who are sent to sites before the rest of the unit to prepare for their arrival. Basically it's the beginning of the end of Michael's deployment, when their unit's torch party arrives.
This information has started to get me excited. I know which unit is replacing Michael, and I have been actively searching the internet for information related to their deployment, when they are leaving, and when their torch party will arrive. Of course, I can't find anything. Why would I? If Michael doesn't know (or claims he doesn't) then why would it be posted on the internet?
Isn't it awful that I am actively wishing this unit would arrive? This means that I am wishing this God awful deployment on another family. I'm sorry, I am just sick of our deployment, and would give anything to know an end date. Or at least a week long window of some sort.
I can't wait to have my husband home.
