Ramadi News

There are several reports that there is fighting on the streets of Ramadi and that soldiers have retreated to the bases. Al-Jazeera reports that "In Ramadi, five American soldiers were injured when Marines shot at and destroyed two suspected car bombs. Seven Iraqi fighters were killed in this clash."

The military has not confirmed this yet (so it may or may not be true) and we do not know whether they are Marines or from the Army.

Also, regarding the Internet situation in Ramadi right now, I found out the following: "Currently, our HHC internet system is down. We do have other BNs on Ramadi who have internet systems and some offices have internet systems. We are working to get the HHC internet system back on line. As of 3:22 p.m. 9 Nov. a contract technicians is being sent to our location to fix the problem. We are also in the process of trying to purchase more internet systems so soldiers will have access."

So Rory may not be online for a bit. If anyone hears from him, PLEASE post. With things so crazy over there I am in a perpetual state of worry.

Rory we are praying for you and your unit constantly.

    Somebody's Praying me Through

    Pressing over me like a big blue sky
    I know someone has me on their heart tonight
    That's why I know it's gonna be alright
    'Cause somebody's praying me through
    Somebody's praying me through
    It may be my Mohter, it might be my Dad
    Or an old friend I've forgot I had
    But whoever it is I'm so glad that
    Somebody's praying me through
    Somebody's praying me through
    Through the tears, through the rain
    Through the sorrow, through the pain
    It keeps bringing me through
    Over and Over again
    So when you're drowgning in a sea of hurt
    And it feels like life couldn't get any worse
    There's a blessing waiting to push back the curse
    'Cause somebody's pryaing you through
    Somebody's praying you through
    Somebody's, somebody's praying you through

    Each in our own way, Rory, we are all praying you through. Love to you always!
