Monday Night Phone Call...

Just had a phone call from M.: he is safe. Cell phone traffic was blocked for awhile, but I was able to get the update during a brief conversation this evening. He was apparently in the middle of giving what wound up being a pretty timely talking-to to some of his soldiers who were not following procedure and getting complacent about being in a combat zone. Thanks to the headline-making event that occurred during his little speech, I don't think he's going to have to give it again anytime soon!
