Well folks, I know its been a few days since the last update, so here
it goes. Work has been very steady here in KAF, lots of work making
sure these flying buses stay in the air. It becomes very challenging
at times, especially considering the conditions we have. When we talk
about conditions, it covers everything from the weather, dust, lack of
parts, not enough time in the day, bosses breathing down and even the
Taliban throw crooks into our everyday affairs. After being here this
trip, my personal views on the whole thing have changed, but I
certainly will reserve them for personal conversations, ask me and I
will tell you. But Lana hit it right on the head the other day ask
her, i'm sure she will tell you also!! My time for this trip in
Kandahar is coming to an end...Thank God! The first trip over here
was an adventure, this time it has been an extreme adventure, and I'm
too old for this S**t, LOL In all seriousness, I will always hold my
experiences close, and never forget why I am here. It is my job and I
take great pride in it.
I am eager to get home and spend some very quality time with family
and friends and especially the Thanksgiving dinner that Larraine has
so graciously postponed until I get home.
The freezes are continuing to be devoured, the candies are almost
gone, except for the peach gummies....yumm. Remind me all to tell you
about the "rockets". Well...tomorrow comes quick, and it is yet
another work day, seems like alot more work days then rest days, but I
guess that is the cost of being here. So I should sign off...Till next
time,
Support Our Troops
