WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES!
What a difference a day makes! The last 24 hours have been an emotional roller coaster! Yesterday, Joey's First Sargent called and told him that he had been shifted to a different unit and needed to prepare for deployment on August 6th! WHAT!!!??? Of course, our hopes for a wedding on August 20th were dashed AGAIN! After many tears and a meeting in person with his First Sargent today, two options were on the table:
1. He would try his best to pull him back to his unit.
2. He would pull all the strings he could to get Joey a one day pass on August 20 since the first 4 weeks are training state side before going overseas......but no guarantees!
We left the meeting half hopeful that we would have a groom on August 20th. On the way home, his First Sargent called and gave him the best news of all..... He couldn't pull him back to his unit and will still be in the unit training stateside before deployment BUT.....since Joey just got back from basic training, he doesn't need to repeat the same 4 week training again and doesn't have to report to that unit until August 27th!........GOD IS GOOD and watching over these kids! This means that Joey will be here for the wedding and if all goes well with the house, he may even get to move in before he leaves! KEEP PRAYING!
