52-year-old Army veteran called back to active duty

Gary Olson is a 52-year-old grandfather, a retired U.S. Army veteran - and soon to be a soldier again, thanks to the need for troops in Iraq.
Olson was ordered to report for duty Dec. 4 in Fort Jackson, S.C.
"They're just looking for bodies to fill in. I have been out cold turkey for 13 years," Olson said. "My philosophy is this: I'm going to prepare for the worst and hope for the best. If I have to go, I have to go."
Sally Olson, his wife of 33 years, said Friday she was shocked by the orders and figured the chances of it happening were "slim to none" when he took early retirement more than a decade ago.
