Best of luck to you, Russ. Let the young guys do the grunt work. As an elder statesman, it's your brain they need...

Hi, The Hell's Angels always said "3 can keep a secret if 2 of them are dead"
Deployment? I'm going in the Ohio  National Guard and will be deployed to Lima Ohio as a cook
But I'll be an E6 and I only need 3 years to retire but am enlisting for 6.  Since every year adds to retirment I think this time I will stay intill they throw me out.

Thanks for your support.  I would not mind being deployed or being full time but I don't think it is going to happen but I'll take what I have and be grateful for the chance to fix one of the major blunders of my life.  I never planned on staying out 14 years. (I failed the hearing in 2001 but passed this time around)

Thanks to Major Mike for agreeing to swear me in.

Hi, I wore sound suppressors for 3 days before the test and stayed in quiet places. It helped just enough.

For the past 14 years I have had reoccuring dreams of being back in the service. Even then I always knew it could not be so but somehow in the dream I became convinced and then would wake up to find it was not so. I am still waiting to wake up and find it is all another fake out. I won't believe it till I have my new military ID card in my furry dog like paws.

Ooops!

Hadn't realized it was supposed to be a secret - but the news had already spilled on The Thread.

Hi, I'm just afraid something will happen and i don't wish to look like a jerk for saying I am going back and then not doing it.  I'm bounching off the walls waiting. The results have not came back yet but the recruiter is proceeding as if they will be alright.

unfortunately (depending on your point of view) Mort Walker decided to get rid of Cookies' cigarette for PC reasons, along with adding more clothes to Ms. Buxley and sending Gen. Halftrack to sensitivity training...Tailhook was a terrible thing...

Hi, Yes but then he kept the 1950's uniforms. (Snorkle would have been booted out for not passing his PT and Bailey for not being promoted after 50 years service)

But that's just appropriate for the subject.

Good Luck Mogami/Russ. Your presense here on these boards has been welcome and informative. I first started reading these boards when you were giving us great lessons on UV.

Congratulations and best wishes. I hope it works out well for you and that you reach retirement safe and happy.

Do you think they'll let you take a few days off for Origins? I'm guessing they won't let you back out on leave so soon - if so we'll miss ya but be glad for you at the same time.

Regards,

- Erik

Hi, I'll be at Origins. Bear might give me a ride but no matter how I'll be there.  I'm joining the national Guard. I don't have to go to boot camp (been there done that)
