But come to find out they are telling him now he neglected to mail back a single form. Based on the "Stop-Loss" policy, they can't process it now. They called today out of the blue saying that he has to report next week for activation. He is currently out of state because of his job and his wife has been an emotional wreck due to having to deal with this unexpectedly and not having time to prepare herself for a lenghthy seperation. In addition to all this, my Dad is a very emotional man in bad health and this seems to be taking a toll on him as well.
Whatever the case, no matter what one thinks of the war, I have to tell myself that God will somehow use all of this for his glory.
