Well folks, I know I haven't been super active here lately - my connection kinds of dictates that for me. Anyhow, At 394 days in theater, I can finally say the end is near. Operation Iraqi Freedom 5 will have been roughly a 415 day experience for me by the time my dusty boots hit the ground back at Ft. Benning, GA. Combine that with OIF3, and I'll have spent around 775 days here over the course of my enlistment. Processing out of the Army will take a month or so, but when that is finished, I'll be headed back home for good. In short, yay! :) | | | | | Sponsored Links | Premium Members do not see Google advertisements. SIGN UP today and help support our community.

Thank you so very much and God bless. I wish you a safe return. My son is currently in the Persian Gulf and I have a yellow ribbon wreath for it. It is for you and everyone who is sacrificing! Thank you for your service to this country.

From this American Anthony, I thank you for your service.
As always in the service don't volunteer for anything, keep your head down and your camera up. See you when you get home. | | | | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
