Title: Deployment!
Post by samurai on Jan 24^th, 2004, 6:01am

Hi everyone,
I have missed this board while I was away, but I get a few more days to wander around on a pass. I am on my final pass this time, so I will be saying those dreadful goodbyes and packing my stuff to go. Our deployment ceremony is on the 7th of Feb. From there we go on to the National Training Center at Ft Irwin, Ca. for our deployment qualification, which could be 10 days to three weeks. From NTC we ship out to Kuwait, to acclimate and continue training for a few weeks before we move into Baghdad. It's getting closer!!
I'd love hear from you guys before I go, I don't know when and if I will be able to access this board after we deploy, but I will be in and out until this Monday morning.

Jason

It's been a while since I went through the feelings you are going through, right now. The exhilaration of what's coming & the apprehension of not knowing.

I would do it again, if I could. But they don't need a slow old man like me out there.

Keep your head down, man. Let us know how things are going...when you can.

God's speed. Take care, expect the unexpected, trust in your unit and trust not the locals.

Thank you for stepping to the plate to protect this nation and my way of life.

My friend, my brother, be safe, and THANK YOU!

I am SO pleased to see how well our service men and women are treated in today's society! How well I remember being spit on, when walking down the street, in uniform, during my time in the Navy, from 1968 to 1972! What a Difference!

Thank the Lord, that even though many feel the president was wrong (as many of us did in the 60-70's)in sending troops over there, we are behind, and proud of those that do go over!

To all those who serve today, tomorrow, yesterday, and yesteryear, I THANK YOU!

Chuck
