AS IT SHOULD BE

This school class "prayed every day" for the soldiers.
Steering clear of unfamiliar animals ... finding huge caches of money ... passing the time with pickup games of flag football.

Those were snippets of the days spent in Baghdad by Tiffin resident and member of an Army firefighting unit, David Baker.

Home on a two-week leave, Baker came to share his experiences with St. Mary's School third graders in Marsha Marinis' class Thursday afternoon. His daughter, Clairese Huffman, is in the class and had asked her classmates to pray for him.

"We wrote him a letter and prayed every day for him,'' Marinis said.
