    Default Divine Intervention?

    Today, I was headed to the transportation office to arrange my flight details to Qatar this summer. This assignment is truly a crap job for me. I will be serving in a position below my pay grade so it has absolutely no career value for me.

    Anyway, as I pulled into the parking lot one of my old battalion commanders (current Army 06) called me. I had previously told him about this assignment and he was calling to ask if I wanted him to get my orders changed to work for him in DC. Wow! Of course I said yes, so now I have to wait to see if he can swing it.

    It is funny how things work out.

    I hate being away and Qatar is a 1 year tour without the family so I would say yes DC is better

    Also, what is your friend's name? If it is Jesus, then I have an answer to your original question.

    One time my PSG was too busy making fun of me for being fat. He made me carry the platoon's bags inside our new digs. They rest of the platoon went back for the rest of our stuff about 50miles away. They were ambushed on the way. All of our guys were okay, a HETT driver was wounded, but sometimes I wonder if I would have went.

    It is weird how things play out.
    Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
