Post Just on update on me

Well, got the day off from Ft. Bragg to come home one last time before being shipped off, and thought I would post one last time. Its been real hectic at Bragg the past few weeks, and im ready to get out of here. We've been staying in OLD rundown WWII barracks up until the other day, where they finally moved us into hotels...meaning its not much longer.
Interesting note on how the army does things- I didnt qualify to get the smallpox vaccination because I had eczema (a rash) as a kid, and was deffered until after exposure... in other words... when I get a Biological weapon used on me, then they'll vaccinate me.....hmmm
Wish I had remembered to bring my camera back home with me, and I would have posted some pics- had some rela interesting ones- maybe later though.
Oh, and also, its my birthday today (and payday!), so getting to come home and see everyone was a nice gift
Hope everyone else and their P-cars are doing allright. Take care
-Randy

Godspeed Doober. You may not realize it but you and the other protectors out there are the true heros of our nation. Give 'em hell!

Multiple beers on me when you get back.

Thank you Randy. Thanks to proud Americans like yourself, the rest of us can all live in peace and only have to worry about little things like air fuel ratios. Our thoughts are with you. Be safe.

Good sight picture.

Inhale, let out half a breath and hold it.

Squeeze the trigger slowly, and be surprised when it goes off.

Best advice I have, Good luck.

Happy birthday, Doober... take care, don't forget to duck, and whack 'em once for Rennlist...

And remember, your objective is to help the guy on the other side become a hero by dying for his country; you are _not_ trying to do the same.

Jim, be safe!
