dongleberry Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 I leave for lackland USAF for basic 21apr2009. I actually picked up playing this game again to occupy the time until I leave. I'm excited and scared at the same time. I actually had a dream about it last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenticular_J Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Thought i'd bump this. Seems like an appropriate place to post. Got word today officially that i will be activated April 27. Will be going on my 2nd deployment to the middle east. Looks like Iraq for 7-9 months but won't know for sure until it gets here. I thought this would be easier the second time around....but its just as hard. Definitely a roller coaster of emotions. Well hot damn. That sure sucks. Horrible time, too. Although, you might be able to get back just in time for the Superbowl. I think. Four ... nine ... Yeah, you should probably make it back for playoffs. I bring up football because I don't want to confront any serious stuff, of course. catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kriegsmier Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Yeah, i'm a Landing Support Specialist. I load gear and people onto Planes, Helos, Boats, whatever. And send it where it needs to go. You know where helos would hover then lift gear with those big ropes/slings? I am the guy under it hooking it all up. IF i get to do my job over there i will be at a larger airbase which will be nice. But they can send me over to do MP stuff if they wanted...not real sure yet. I hope i'm going over to help with the pullout thats coming. Send some guys and gear back home. Good luck Dongle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killerbeer0 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 After years of being on the interwebs, I have realized that a majority of the population that is on the internet are lying. Fixed. On Topic: I am debating joining the military after getting my degree in engineering. Probably the Navy for the excellent Nuclear Engineering training programs. Not to mention the great retirement. OH S***! He/she/it is back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
