A few months ago i began to go with a Guy who is Yery Good looking and considered a  everything was Fine until he started to push me around. Physically i mean. We got into a silly argument about which to Channel to watch and he socked me in the Arm so hard it left a great big Black and Blue Mark that lasted a week. When my Mother asked me about it i lied and said i ran into a door Frame. I like this Guy a lot but in a not willing to be a punching bag to keep him. I see signs of a mean temper that could get out of control. Do you think if i Laid Down the Law he would be More respectful please give me some advice Ann. A v. A a. A i need it. A /. A a a.

Creators Syndicate the sunday december 9,1990 the stars and stripes Pawoll a writer tells of desert shield support i am the founder of a newly formed group called . Support our soldiers. We be formed this group for army spouses at fort have been sent to saudi Arabia. We plan on meeting Carson Colo. It is mainly for be whose spouse european edition circulation 190,000a col. Gene e.

Lately we be been focusing on christmastime Joy via Christmas cards and packages. Several elementary schools Are working with us and k Mart has donated Christmas cards and is paying the postage so the children can write the cards to soldiers who do not receive mail. This was a wonderful gesture. We Are beginning to work with other businesses out not All details Nave been finalized. The commanding general at fort Carson maj. Gen. Neal t. Jaco is aware of our group and is supporting us 100 percent. Wed like very much for the Public to become More aware of us overseas. Its very easy to get the feeling you Are left out of things when you Are stationed overseas especially in the Remote areas. I feel there Are Many people Over there who arc family members who want to do something for All of the soldiers in saudi but just done to know where to Start. Well our group would be the perfect place for them to Start we could correspond with them on our activities and they could design the same Type of activity on their Post. We have buttons made for our group and Are Selling them rapidly. We could arrange to mail these to anyone int vested overseas. We would like to arrange with a commissary in Europe to possibly Send fresh fruit to the soldiers in saudi. But it is very hard to do so being Over Here. It would really Benefit us and the soldiers if we could somehow formulate a sister organization in Europe which could pursue this venture. Hopefully this does no to sound too far fetched to you. Please let me know if this would be at All possible and also any ideas or comments you have would be More than Welcome. A Susan Hembree . 2601 Willard drive Security Colo. 80911.
