Our primary staff officers were invited down to have a Christmas Eve lunch with our counterparts, the Afghan Special Forces Senior Officers. Their General said, if you can't be home with your family please consider yourselves part of our family. While they don't celebrate Christmas, they do understand its importance to us and they recognize the sacrifice we make for their country by being away from home. Food was good and there was enough for everyone.
Looks yummy! So nice of them. Know it's not even close to the same though--thank you for all the sacrifices you make for us!
