Hi Kelly:
I can only imagine how crazy things are there, so you are forgiven even though there is no need to apologize. I am just glad to hear from you and more importantly, know that you are okay.
Here's is Don Burgett's email address:
(I removed this to keep it from Spammers...)
Do you know that he has his own website and forum now? Here's the link in case you get a moment to check it out:

Hey is there anything you need in particular over there? I'd be glad to send off a care package to you and the "guys". Let me know. I'd be more than happy to help out where I can.
Things are going well on my end. Have been keeping really busy with my articles and I actually started working on my book. The guys have submitted so many wonderful first-hand accounts from the war, that I could write volumes. Amazing stuff to say the least.
If you get the chance, I'm including the links to my latest article from Army Engineer Magazine. It was a real thrill and honor to have my article featured on the cover of Nov/Dec's issue. I copied it in two parts because I didn't want the download to be too big.

Well I know you have your hands full, so I won't keep you. My best to you. Take care and stay safe. Will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Warm regards,
Marion
