Day 6 Message in a Bottle

Early phone call while I was in the shower. They received their ititnerary. They would be hopping on planes in groups of 6-7 soldiers soon. So he is most likely in the air at this time, but to where I do not know. So the waiting begins... the knot in my stomach again... where is he? is he okay? where is he going?  I hate not knowing. He said he would send me a message to let me know he is safe.  And I wait....
