I appreciate the good advice! We have chosen to omit the sentence from our letter. I was initially concerned that it would give a false impression that we're "pro-war", but as was pointed out here, it's more a matter of not wanting to cause undue concern about whether my husband might be sent out again. Since there is NO chance he will be recalled again, we don't want a birthmother to feel anxious about whether we might become a single parent family due to military conflict.

Of course my husband's military service and patriotism will be something we'd openly (and proudly) share with any potential birthmoms in person. We're not trying to hide anything. Honesty is of utmost importance in a relationship so infused with trust.

Thanks again,
Gail
