8/31/2010
When my Navy Medical Reserve Unit was called up for Operation Desert Storm, I was awakened by a phone call at three o’clock on a Sunday morning with the order to report for duty in four hours for processing.  After I hung up the phone, my husband groggily asked, “Who was that?”  “Oh honey.” I moaned, thinking of our 15 month-old child, “I have to go to war!”  “Don’t worry,” he said as he rolled over, “It’s Sunday, and traffic won’t be bad.”
