He is so young. That's why I hope this nation or world, will completely and finally be in peace, no wars.

Oh, that will happen. However, we seem to be destined to go through more of this before it all ends.

I've been watching this story.  My son's army reserve unit is scheduled to be activated sometime before the end of the year.  Destination somewhere in the Middle East.

This must worry you so much.  Hopefully..the outcome is peace and he returns to the family that loves him.

I like the fact that he's in the army reserve.  It's good for him - some extra income, insurance for him and his wife.  But I wouldn't mind it if it was the army that just stuck to training and didn't actually go anywhere. Yes, it is a worry.
