I don't think I would be at ease on a boat while divers are looking for bombs stuck to the bottom of it.

Good Morning
Oh my! I was actually feeling quite anxious when I was reading this post. I can just imagine how everyone felt living through this.

And somethings never seem to change. I had a family member in AUSTRALIA WHO NEVER MISSED AN OPORTUNITY TO RUN DOWN THE USA. HE HAD IMMIGRATED FROM sERBIA TO aUSTRALIA...ILLEGALLY AND WE ALL WORKED HARD TO GET IM CITIZENSHIP. aNYWAY i ASKED HIM IF HE WAS FORCED TO LEAVE aUSTRALIA WOULD HE RATHER GO TO THE USA OR TO THE MIDDLE EAST.

That sounds incredibly unsettling. So many threats everywhere.

Even now when that time is long played out, the suspense is still there in the letters. You must have worried so much!

Good afternoon
That had to be very unsettling news for those sailors. The mention of terrorists brings fear to any living soul, but the military personnel who protect us must have had a double dose of both danger along with horrifying thoughts of the what if's.

Wow! That is terrifying. And somehow familiar - almost like the
headlines we see in the here and now. You must have held your breath and done a lot of praying while Mark was in service.
