WHOO HOO!!! CPT PATTI HAS email finally. I got a note from her written very early this morning. An excerpt is below. I only cut out a line about an NCO that got sick, and, of course, the mushy stuff. Sounds as if the email is on some sort of "shared" computer, with folks waiting in line to use it. I wrote her back with a million questions, and I'll post the answers here, of course.

Man...I feel good.

Good morning, baby!

We finally have email!! Phone lines are absolutely useless.

I just want to send a quick one since we got people who need to email too. I got all your packages and your card. Also, I got a package from Cousin Cheryl. Thank you, thank you. We are all doing very well....We are really doing good. I'll write more later.
