Good luck, Sarge.

Seconded! Best wishes to both of you.

Good luck with all of it Sarge. I'm sorry that you have to be re-deployed because of your financial situation.
With all of this woman's treachery, how can you be sure the child is yours?
I think it would be better for the child if it were yours, and you were able to get custody.

We did do a DNA test, but only to improve my court case. I really didn't care if I was the biological father or not. I love Addie (which is short of Adeline, the name of both of our great-grandmothers).

If it was me I would prefer to be combat assignable. But that's just me. OOOH RAH!

Oh, Sarge.

*prayers, prayers, prayers*

capnhowdy - I know what you mean but right now this is the best I can do.

I may not have typed that just right. I'm sure you feel the same as I. I am proud for your service, Sir. At any capacity you will better the security of our country. Make no mistake... I appreciate that.

Hey Sarge, don't forget we'll still be here, if you can get on the web.

Sarge...I really don't know what to say. I am shocked that somebody who has already served and paid a price for that service is now all but forced to return to danger to avoid destitution.

One day, I really hope, that our two nations learn the lesson of the value of our servicemen and women. You're worth more than this.

In the meantime... be well, and we're thinking of you. Come back safely. Whatever your ex may think, it's never better for a little girl not to know her real daddy. Keep in touch, Sarge, and all the best.

Take care, Sarge. Thank you, again, for your service.

I hope the custody stuff works out. You are a good dad for fighting for your little girl.

Hang in there Sarge. Sounds like you have a handfull. You should try to find some support groups for divorced dads, there should be a ton on-line, you can't be the first one to go through some of this as bad as it is for you now. Someone has been down this road before and should be able to offer support and advice.

You and RegJoe need to let us know how to send you some stuff and let us know what you would like. I have been depolyed plenty and it is always nice to get a letter or a package to keep you going. Good luck.

I'm in. I was there twice (1988 and again later (core dumped the dates)) in the Navy. I can help with a CARE package also.

Try JAG, they might be able to help. IMO, her case is mighty weak.

I don't want to put my name and unit out so much on the interwebs, I had kind of an aha experience at SERE school earlier this year with my name being on the net in various places.

Just an idea, Undertoad, would you mind being the custodian so to speak and disseminate my address to trusted members of the community?

I won't have a good address until mid July.

How about we pm you and you can send it to those of us personally that you choose to send it to.
