Sad but great!
I've spent one Christmas abroad myself.
In 1998, up in the mountains of Macedonia.
It's a strange feeling, not only being away from home, but being in a completely different country for Christmas....
My thoughts goes to every soldier who's far away in a strange country, far far away from their families this christmas.
Thanks!
(and by the way: I'm also working 25-26 December this year... Duty/Daily officer at my camp here in Norway...
