Good morning ladies, I have not talked to Myron since take off, so I have no idea if they made it. But I know they were delayed in Seattle for two days due to mechanical difficulites with the first plane. When they got there Myron found out there were several other Sailors that have been at the USO for 3 or more days awaiting a flight to Japan. He arrived in Seattle Monday evening, he said that it would be a 14 hour flight. Is being there anything like GL's where they have to process them first, then they will get to call home? Having him home for 20 days was good although he didn't talk much, until the last three days. Then we couldn't get him to shut up. All he did was eat and sleep. He looked great however; he was different, more mature, but different. I appreciate any and all support. I will be on a lot more, now that I have a computer at home finally. Have a good morning and I will ttyl...Veleda

I can answer that one yes they do. That's only because when Katie & Matt were home in July they went from SF to Seattle then Seattle to Tokyo.

Hi ladies, my Sailor is on the plane as we speak headed for Japan, he said by this time Tuesday morning, they will be on the Blue Ridge. He and several other Sailors have been laid over in Seattle, some there longer than others and some not as long. I just wanted to give you ladies an update.
