lots of love going with you, as you can see by this thread bubba...
hang tough. come back safe.

I respect you very much. Thank you for serving my country during such an awkward time here. I really wish you didn't have to go. I know many people from Ohio that have had to go. Such a shame. Regardless of how I feel about it, I support my troops to the fullest and you have my deepest respect. Please be safe and return home soon and safely. Thanks man.

Oh my, your country is asking a lot on you - 3rd time around.
I wish you all the best - do come back unharmend and let the Stones music sooth your soul.

Echoing everybody else, my man: thanks for doing what you gotta do, be careful, and I hope the politicians get you and all the Yanks and Brits (and others) out EARLY, so you can see more Stones.

Be safe Chris and come back in one piece. If I ever met you, beer's on me! God bless and may the angels watch over you and your mates.

Good Luck Chris...may God watch over ya..

Suerte amigo!!

This information, added to your sober writing, made our set-list "problems" incredibly petty.

I wished we could offer you something as a remind of some of us. I would have first thought to a Stones ticket, but there is not concert planned as for now in the USA. So maybe some good records, or a couple of Stones tee-shirt you could enjoy where you are off duty in Irak.

If there is someone I trust here 100%, it's Bjornulf. So I would be too happy to send him some little currency with paypal, and our good webmaster would choose for you a nice gift. What do you think, folks ?

Chris, thanks for the kind words, and for thank you too for the sacrifices. It must be tough to go back, I can't even imagine... I am sure you guys are giving hope to millions of people there. You are contributing to rebuildng a nation as indivuduals like yourself have done already in the past, in my country of origin, France. I am sure the history will prove me right.

Take a good care of yourself.

Respectfully,

J-M

Dam, this sucks. Don't want you to go, I've enjoyed your "intelligent" posts oh so much. Time waits for no one, so enjoy the last two weeks as much as possible. And don't forget to pack Dirty Work!

Hi Chris!!
Take care of yourself over there.Be safe, God bless you

God speed to you Chris

Good luck man. Stay safe. Whether one agrees or not with the decisions of those who are sending you there, you are doing a great service (at the end of the day, hopefully for the Iraqis most of all). Come back in one piece.

Sgt. Chris,

You just put my dull little life in a sharper focus. The next time I percieve Myself to be having a bad day, I will Play a Stones song that I downloaded from one of your post in Hotstuff. That will make me realize how easy I have it. It would be an Honor to meet you someday when you get back.

Thank you for the dose of reality.

Thank you for all the great post.

Most of all Thank you for your Service.

Please Be careful and watch your back.

PS. If any of your Buddies in your outfit are real country music Fans make sure you turn them onto Rolling Stones Country Music.

Thank you

Sincerely,

Ed Quinn

Chris,

We've only exchanged words once or twice here on the boards, but I hope it will help you to know that you've got a nation behind YOU 100%. Not only that, but to know that you've got members of other nations who believe in YOU, regardless of the job, because after all, you're not the message, you're the messenger, so to speak. I must say that as an American, it's comforting to know that we've got people like you serving our nation - doing a job that is often not given creedence, but should be given the utmost respect.
I respect and appreciate the sacrifice that you make. I hope that God will bless and keep you over there, and that you'll find your way home, so to speak. I hope that you're able to find peace over there, I hope that you keep safe, and I hope that when you're not fighting, you can find time to share moments of beauty, and I hope that you have reminders of home with you, and if that means the Stones, then by all means, crank it up.

Thank You for what you do.

Come home soon!

God Bless,

Matt

well, i gotta say, i dont support the war, but i support the soldiers. watch your back, and good luck.

Good luck there - don't get hurt!

Best of luck mate!

Alex

Chris, I'm not sure if you are religous or not, if not don't bother with the link. If you are, please print and take this prayer with you to Iraq.

Looking forward to seeing your name back on here when you return.

Be safe!

Hopefully BV is ok with the OT nature of this post due to the serious nature of war.

Stay safe, Sarge. No matter what we think of this screwy war, you guys out there on the line are aces!

My brother's going, too. He actually requested it before, the crazy bastard. Maybe you can get him hooked onto the Stones...he listens too...dare I say...rap. You know, the bad kind. He once bought a Jet CD, too.

Anyhow, don't worry about nothing. I know he'll make it, and you will too. We got a good army despite all the press.
