Thanks guys, I just try to remember God is still God and He is still on the throne. All I can do is trust him. Just got a message from Sis saying he still has cell service for now and he is coordinating the military planes evacuating people. Talk about point of the spear.

Keep praying guys, Strek is still at the Kabul airport trying to coordinate the troop final departure but it is getting nasty. His stateside commander just called my daughter this morning to tell her Strek and his group are safe for now but the situation is so fluid and volatile it is really scary over there right now. I can not imagine being a civilian trying to leave right now.

Praying we evacuate every decent person from that country unharmed.... Then "take off and nuke the site from orbit. Only way to be sure."
Bless your family and every American putting themselves in harms way to help out those that need it.

Praying for your S-I-L, Robb. And all other service members, Americans and innocents in that mess. Glad you asked!

The Taliban is in control. Anything that happens is on them.... ISIS? Let me guess, a CNN report? MSNBC?
Prayers every day for Strek and those working to get people out of there.

When I saw the news yesterday about the bombings,, my thoughts immediately went to this post. I hope Strek is ok,, but my heart aches for the families of the 13 killed,, and all the injured.
Prayers continue.

At about 3:30 am Kabul time Strek got the green light to lift off all his guys in their choppers and head for one of the other "stans where hopefully they an load stuff on a few C-17s and head home. Of all the deployments he has been on over there he said this is by far the nastiest. The stuff they had to deal with, the failing infrastructure which meant that some days they didn't even have water to flush a toilet to the way it was handled by the WH and the brass, it was a total cluster. Hopefully no bearded crackpot is lying on a hill outside Kabul trying to pick off choppers. He should be on his way home but not out of the woods yet.
