Nephew Mike has run his last convoy op and sits behind the wire until shipped home with his WI Nat Guard unit in mid-August.

News today had spooked us a bit, as replacement WI unit had taken 2 hurt and 1 dead in first convoy op, leading father of dead soldier to complain about short training (Mike got about half of what he was promised), so this is nice news.

Mike was on pace to log 60k of convoy op miles, so we thank the Lord for his life and we thank Mike for his service...
