I previously posted this thread on the Prospect Heights board and while a lot of people viewed the thread there was very little response... so now I'm curious to see if I'll get more of a response on this board. I find the story compelling, but maybe not a lot of others don't - I don't know, but I'm personally curious to see if there will be a noticeable change. Thanks to anyone who helps!

Hey Folks - I checked the other boards and none of them seemed to fit what I'm posting, if I'm posting on the wrong board - obviously sorrys all around and feel free to move me.
A girl that I work with overseas (Staten Island) is fighting to keep her husband from being re-deployed back to Iraq. He's a marine in the military and already did his tour in Iraq - where he became very sick and still remains very sick to this day. Of course the military is refusing to say his current health problems are a direct result of him being in Iraq: where he attempted to rescue his fellow comrades and in doing so he went into polluted water where he inhalled toxic water... and has had severe intestinal issues since... hmmm, yeah, no connection to me... Anyways, after the moronic commander in chief decided we need to send more troops over to Iraq, he got word that he was to go back - no ifs, ands, or but I can't even get out of bed most mornings I'm so sick. His wife Laura, is trying to collect enough signatures so that he may be granted the purple heart due to his being injured as the result of attempting to save lives and indeed saving a few of his fellow troops, and therefore then won't have to go back and he'll also receive the needed healthcare. So I'm posting the following link to the petition - feel free to send it to anyone you think might want to sign it. Time is of the essence as they are telling him he only has a couple of weeks until he must go back. Thanks for any and all help. I really feel for this girl and of course her husband. I know them both, and physically he just wouldn't be able to take another tour, rightfully he shouldn't have to.
Thanks!!
