I thought the same thing the other night. I got to drive down the runway for the Airfield driving license class and wanted my car so badly.

Hey merv, finally got a chance to get on and post up, remember what I told you a few days ago, we need to get the crew from tech that is over here with us and get a pic for the board. Maybe my next off day I will try and swing out to the station and see what is up. Will shoot you an email later on and of course will see you around, we always pop up in random places... Later.

Merv where you at again? I'm a C-5 Loadmaster active duty so if i'm through any of the typical places that I fly to (Balad, Baghdad and Al Asad) when my plane lands i'll try and look you up.... we rarely stay longer than a few hours... I drop off cargo, make my tax free and hostile fire and I get the hell up outta there. Too hot and no 5 star hotels...

As far as only 11 months off yeah that sucks. I thought the PDG says 1:2 dwell time for an AEF battle rythym??? yeah right...

I'm in Balad..at the Fire Dept. I haven't seen a C-5 here yet..

We are a 1:4 dwell time for our AEF's..the re-arranged the buckets cause we got switched to AMC..and I'm one that took it in the pooper..

I guess I can't really complain..I'm here now so nothing to really do about it.
All my ****'s in storage, and I have no kids and no bills. I'll pay the remaining $3k on my truck when I get back and have a good time.
