Comments on: Iraq: A Family Affair http://www.btcnews.com/btcnews/942 BTC News: News, politics, opinion and satire Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:52:31 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Diana Loucks http://www.btcnews.com/btcnews/942/comment-page-1#comment-144726 Diana Loucks Sun, 24 Sep 2006 14:33:53 +0000 /?p=942#comment-144726 To answer the question posted on the webpage about whether or not you wonder if they were offered the opportunity to stay behind -- the Army understands that dual military couples exist, and even exist within the same Brigades and Battalions. Dual military couples understand that unless there are extenuating circumstances -- extreme illness of either parent or that of the child, etc., (at the discression of the command), then neither will be asked to stay behind. The Army requires family care plans per Army Regulation 600-20 (check this link http://www.usapa.army.mil/pdffiles/r600_20.pdf), page 37, to ensure that the children are cared for in the instance that one or both of the parents does not return. If a care plan does not exist, then one if not both of the parents are asked to leave Army service for their priority on the care of their families will then not be consistent with the values of the Army.

It is completely and totally disrespectful to the sacrifice that Sam Castle made to politically exploit it. As a friend of the Castle family I guarantee you that if you had contacted Nicole Castle, she would have expressed her outrage at the use of this article about her husband's sacrifice and her family's loss.
