Quote
It was common to see young mothers with small children, who have husbands at war, walking around at the Civic Center grounds. That's why I offered for Jessica to come to Covington County. I want her to share her story with the wives who have husbands in the Bravo Battery 1/117 Field Artillery Unit that left out of Covington County. She is very enthused about the possible chance to talk to the wives in Covington County.
