Military Spouse Journey Day 4: FOB Fenty Afghanistan

Today was emotional for me.  Maybe it was the anticipation of knowing this day would resonate the most for me, maybe it was the jet lag.  I only had 2.5 hours of sleep.  There is a little bit of a lengthy backstory on why this was emotional and there is no way I can explain it all.  If you read “The Outpost” by Jake Tapper, you would understand how Matt’s experience during that first deployment made this visit special.  I think there is going to be a specific place (or couple of them) for a lot of military families where if it is meaningful to your spouse then it is meaningful to you.
