On Monday, October 26, my daughter was deployed to Iraq.
On Friday, October 9, I realized that I didn't know what the mission was in Iraq. In an effort to find out, I called my senator, Susan Collins, but they couldn't tell me. I called another of her offices, and then another. When I got no real answer there, I called Senator Olympia Snowe's offices, and then my congressman, Mike Michaud.
