'I can't wait to leave,' reservist tells family in e-mail

Edmonton Journal, 11 Jul 06

Here are two unedited e-mails Cpl. Anthony *Boneca* sent to his

family and friends before and after he went on leave in May. The

21-year-old reservist with the Lake Superior Scottish Regiment based in Thunder Bay, Ont., was killed Sunday and two other Canadian soldiers were wounded in battles with the Taliban west of Kandahar City. Boneca was the 17th Canadian soldier to die in Afghanistan.

hey everyone,

just thought i'd give you all an update since i have talked to most of you in a while and alot of crap has happened here but so you know i'm OK. my platoon has been gone out of the wire for a long time. our first operation lasted 16 days then we had a 3-day break before going out for what was supposed to be 4 to 7 day op but turned into a 22 day, walk everywhere, climb everything eat nothing but rations and live worse than the locals fun factory. or as we like to call the Kandahar weight loss plan. it's been nothing but fun over here and i can't wait to leave. i'm going on my trip to Italy and Greece soon with my baby Megan. it will be a good and badly needed break. i leave on the 10th of may and come back june 2. then i only have 2 more months of hell before i come home. hope you all e-mail me soon but i might not be able to answer becuase i'm going back out to live in the sand.

talk to you all soon

Tony Boneca
