James,
Guten tag. I'm in Leipzig waiting to reboard the plane for the last leg of my flight to Kuwait. Just getting to Iraq is quite an experience.
Thanks for the good wishes. Two minor notes: I'm no longer in the Reserves, having returned to active duty earlier this year, and there's no 'a' in Olmsted.
Editor's note: Errors corrected.

I liked the comment that we are a military at war, if not a nation at war. It says a lot.
