Where is w8lftinglady?
I haven't seen her post in awhile and I know her son is back in Iraq--this time as a contractor because her son was afraid he would be re-deployed anyway.
My prayers and thoughts are with her.

2. Hold up. You can go back as a contractor and avoid deployment through the mil?
WTF?

3. He was discharged
If I understand this correctly--but still able to be recalled.
He was experiencing some PTSD from his previous deployment and injuries and wasn't fitting in so he decided to go in as a contractor--that way the military would leave him alone since he was in Iraq anyway.
That is the way I understood it.
I was worried when I read that some contractors had been kidnapped and not seeing her around, was worried for her.
