American Bums smell better than ANY local national
food that's not from Schwann's
wiping my butt with something that's not the equivalent to an 80 grit paper bag

driving my own car
the American National Anthem (if you've ever been to my place in the last half a year, you know what I'm talking about, particularly at 8 AM)
Radio stations with music from this decade, prefereably
Sam's Club (3 gallons of mustard, why the hell not?)

I think that I am going to make it my goal this weekend to do everything that you listed on your miss list, that way your efforts are not in vain. Some times I forget the lists of stuff that I would write up while deployed over seas. I remember that I had a solid six month schedule that I planned with everything that I wanted to do and everything that I missed doing. Then when I got back I just got drunk all the time and the plan went to shit, but I feel where you are coming from.

Stay strong, and do let us know if there is anything that you would like to get in a care package. I am sure a couple people on there could swing some stuff, at least TP.

[Sharpienads]

I know the things I miss the most when I'm deployed are:

Wife
Dogs
Having a solid bowel movement in my own toilet
Showering in my own shower without shower shoes
Being able to go wherever I want when I want to go there

Hang in there buddy and stay safe. Thanks for your service!

Things i miss about being deployed:

No nagging wife
No screaming kids
No nagging wife
No line at wal smart
No neighbors barking dog
No nagging wife
And the biggest one, I miss not paying for my ammo


Be safe and you will be home soon enough!

Sounds to me like you are at Bagram

just remember, it could be worse.

keep your ass down, your weapon close and your head on a pivot.
Get home soon

[cstone]

Thank you. We miss you. We will make sure that some of those things are here when you get back

Be safe.

I'm a little farther forward than that, but not by much. I know there are folks out there having a REALLY hard time. Josh is out there pretty far.

You are in my old stomping grounds, although it is a bit more dangerous this time around. Aren't you almost done?
