Feeling the Love
| Lately I haven't heard much from Sniper (Please do not misunderstand me when I say this. I am not complaining one bit on the communication we have had over the last 6 months at all). It's not for a lack of not wanting to on his part, just somethings have changed and communication is sparse. The one way I have been able to reassure myself that he is "ok" is by going onto his myspace and seeing when the last time he was on. The power of the internet really is incredible. This morning I noticed he posted a few more pics. The one below caught my eye when I read the caption he put underneath "This is my M-40 Sniper Rifle. Her name is on the case!!"  Most will never understand the feelings behind this for him, but I understand and that is all that matters. I have heard from him and other's about "Jenn," but to actually see it, puts me in awe. My emotions got the best of me and I just let the tears flow freely this morning. Sniper, as I told you already, may "Jenn" protect you and keep you safe, until the physical "Jenn" can wrap her arms around you, provide you with a different kind of protection and a comfort you have never experienced with anyone but her. Another picture that caught my eye is the next one.  "Providing you with the Blanket of Freedom. Sleep tight, We're on watch" To me it is a powerful photo. I honestly cannot adequately express with my words and come thru with the justice it deserves. It is a awe inspiring, beautiful photo and is by far my favorite. dyzgoneby Sniper, I feel the love in your heart all the way across the oceans. I will always love you forever and a day. |

post a commentThat is just great. I am so happy you guys have that understanding. I am here to listen if you ever should need to vent.
Hey Hon just wanted to say hello. Still living out of a suitcase but wanted to say that I'm thinking about you and Sniper this week.

Great pictures. Think positive thoughts and the internet is wonderful! When I haven't heard from my husband, I will check everything online... including our checking account for clues. Have a good weekend!
I think the M-40 has changed a lot since I had one back in the late 80's early 90's. For one we did not have the bi-pods and we had a diffrent scope. I'm not even sure that is a Remington 700. It's been 15 years since I have even seen my weapon. I guess things have changed. They call him Sniper, he has a sniper rifle, better tell him to go out and get the 8541 mos next. FYI that would be a school trained sniper. Then he could change his call sign to "God". He will know what that means, the rest of you don't take offense the the use of the word (god) it's a sniper thing.
Aww that's so sweet! Loved your post. The pics were great and I loved the caption he added to the sunset pic! Take care!
Charla
Lovin' it.
Just... lovin' it.
I wish I could meet you guys some day.
christy...I may have to vent to you soon. Deep Breaths here.
hh6....welcome back to the USA. Hopefully you will be settled soon.
Monica...I hope you had a great weekend too. I don't know how we survived without the internet. Personally I would go insane without it.
uncle jim....I am soo glad you both know what the hell your talking about. I know your basics, it's a weapon, lock and load, point and shoot. Is there more to it than that. I am not really sure why he hasn't done the 8541. Sniper, can you answer that for me. Pretty please.
Charla....That sunset pic just blows me away. I am going to have it blown up and put on my wall. I love it!
AF...One of these days, we are all going to have to get together. Maybe next year at the milblog conf. Ya never know where the Marine Corps will take him & we all know I will follow.
Yes I can. Until just recently you had to be a 0300 mos, infantry to get a seat in the school. I just read about the school taking MP's now. But they only get one seat in the class. When I went in 1988 there were no MP's. There were however 2 Navy seals, 2 Army Rangers, and 2 gren berets. It a tough school to get in, and 10 times harder to get through it. Come to think of it, looking at that picture again. That weapon looks just like the one the Army guys brought to the school. Things change I guess.
