Running into a sister/brother
 

Many on this site already know that I am deployed to the middle east. Well its X-mas and like and crazy Army Officer I went to the gym to get my work out on. I ran into someone wearing a Purdue Sweatshirt. We started chatting since we both went to Purdue. She asked me if I was in a sorority and I said yes, Gamma Phi Beta. And she responded Delta Iota. Turns out she was about 4 yrs behind me but we are sisters. it was strange to be deployed and run into a sister.

Best Wishes
 

Best wishes for a very safe and Merry Christmas. I hope that next year you will be spending the holiday with you family and friends. We are behind you 100%.

Those Gamma Phis are everywhere! Wishing you, our sister, and all of you deployed a safe new year, which sees you return safely home!

That is awesome!!!!!! Your story tugged at my heart strings a bit as one of my aunts is a Gamma Phi. I love hearing stories that show us that we are all connected to each other somehow!!! What a neat thing to think of in this Holiday Season!!!!!!

Thank you for serving your country, and my prayers are with you for your safety!

thank you for your service. so glad you found a sister where you are! merry christmas and best wishes for a happy new year.

Keep you eyes and ears open. From reading several of our media, there are a few SAE's over there.

And from what I recall reading here in GC, just about every other GLO is represented.

Hoping that you and yours get home safe.

Thank you so much for your service to this country! Merry Christmas and stay safe!

And I have a couple of Gamma Phi Beta friends! Best wishes and God's blessings on you! Many thanks for your service!

It's so neat running into a sister (especially one of the 'slightly older' kind ;) in random places.

When I was a collegian, my chapter went on a Valentines' Day Dinner Cruise with the TKEs. Of course, being the attention grabbing girls we were, we made sure the cruise emcee gave a special 'shout out' to the Alpha Gams. Once that happened, a woman from all the way on the other side of the room stood, waved, and yelled "I'm an Alpha Gam too!"

Turns out she's from Alpha Beta - University of Michigan...initiated some time in the 50s, I believe. Every Alpha Gam on that boat that night got a picture with her and she looked like she was having a good time!

Anyway, afboiler, thank you once again for serving our country. Stay safe and God speed, Triad sister!

Wasn't one of my sisters but another Gamma Phi -- ran into her at a career fair of all places! She was an alumni of my college and we got to talking about sororities, and there it came out! Think she was disappointed when I wasn't one though. =P

What a great story! Stay safe, afboiler, and thanks for everything you're doing!!

I used to give campus tours and signed up to do a special bus tour for a 40th reunion. Turns out five of the women on the bus were Delta Gammas! We shared stories, took pictures, and I gave them directions to the new chapter house after the tour was over.

afboiler, I echo one and all for you to stay safe!

Yep, there are a lot of GLOs in both wars.

Two of my guys met up with each other and sent Pix back so I could send out to our chapter listing.

Just wear a little something and see how many other Greeks may show up. Nice to have some people that you can just talk with!:)
