HI.
I'm with Robert when I say "thank you" to both of you for your sacrifices. To you for giving up your boyfriend for his tour of duty (whether we believe in the cause is moot) and to your boyfriend for serving a grateful nation (including this NYC'er).
I did a 9-11-01 memorial album that I did in the american colors as well as navys, grays, and whites. You can always work in other embellishments and don't forget to print out his e-mails to you and ask his folks to do the same as they will be valuable to him later on even if he doesn't want to talk about his tour of duty.
Compose the layout in the proud american feel. Newsclippings and other items from the home front would be of interest to generations to come. Whatever momentos he brings home or sends to you can be added as well.
We do talk about scrapbooking but this group "R-C-S' is also a great support group. I treat my cyber-space friends as closely as those I've met in person. Occassionally you'll see "OT" which means off topic and a general chat. It is like sitting with friends scrapping and you are talking about other things.
Good luck and don't forget to share.
Kate
