My son, LCpl Cory Livengood, Bethesda Naval Hospital
My Grandson, Marc (Sgt.) Army Airborne
10th Mtn. Combat Division, Ft. Drum, N.Y.
Currently Deployed in Afghanistan
My son Ben, Pvt. Army, (having health problems preventing him from passing AIT PT test, being checked for asthma - very depressed, frustrated)
Marilyn - Ethan will go to Airborne training after basic. He gets out of basic in April. Like Patrick - Ethan is in his element - he loves it!!!
Sandie - I for one will certainly be specific in prayers for Ben. Stephen has been having similar issues, but was recently moved to a less physical job MOS - more of a desk thing is what I heard from Patrick. Stephen has recently had frostbite on at least one finger and was told he may have to have some amputation(s) - I'll find out more tonite.
My son - SPC John W. Masters, III. U.S. Army - Ft. Richardson, AK - deploying to Afghanistan in 40 days.
Thanks.
