i have about 15 flights ahead of me, and its gonna take a while. then back to fort drum for a while... then the drive to houston.
then its on to chl class at shilows!.
ill update this thread with some pics once i get back in the states. i plan on passing through ky on my way back to texas, and unless it ends up being off hours when i go through i will be stopping at buds gun shop to meet and greet, as well as make a purchase. i will update here with that as well.
feels good to be getting out.
instead of thanking me for my service, reply with pics of funny stuff. that will be thanks enough, because i have a feeling im gonna need to laugh once i get off the last flight and finally get back to the states.
Just a little advice from someone that was a former infantry paratrooper that was overseas for 5 years except for a short stint at WRAMC. I felt like I was in an episode of the twilight zone when I first got back to the states, everyone in their own world and everyone seemed to me like a shady used car salesman. Take some time, decompress, for me it was best to just get away from everything and slowly get back into sociaty, I emphasize slowly. Don't worry the ratrace will be there for you when you are ready to jump back in the game.
Good luck to you and thank you for serving...
