While in Iraq, Gmail kept me connected with my fiancee. The phones were always busy, so I would log on at all hours of the day, hoping to get a quick response, but rarely getting one, because of the
time difference. But sometimes, a little chat window would pop up, with her screen name on it, and we would talk for way past the designated limit. But without both the email and the chat, our love never would have been shared as it was. We have now been happily married for over 6 months, with no end in sight, and little fear of next deployment.
