I do have some relatively good news.  I've been selected for LTC, which really doesn't mean much.  I can get promoted once I move into an LTC slot.  But, I've got time in grade and military and civilian education all complete so I'd get promoted once I moved into an LTC slot anyway.  Gotta love the military way.


Congrats Mike

Congratulations, Soon-to-be-LTC Mike!


Gotta find an LTC slot first. Been waiting for almost a year for one. It'll happen (or it won't)!

Yeah, I am. I'll also stay in at least until June 2010. (That'll give me 22 years.) If I get promoted before that, I'll stay in for 3 years to retire at that rank. Either way, I'm looking for a civilian job so I can stop wearing this uniform every day.

Yeah , but Omaha Nebraska? Offut AFB?

I haven't checked any maps yet , but as I recall SAC chose that as it's headquarters as it's the furthest place from water in the USA? I thought Millington Tenn was a strange place to send a sailor?

LTC is about it for 2 reasons. First, the politics for COL are far beyond my tastes and second, I don't want to stay in much longer.

Someone has to be. I grew up there so it was either them or the place I was born, Plymouth Argyle. At least if I was an Argyle fan I'd have a decent ringtone for my phone

Some of us like to occassioanally get together with our WITP brethern for a beer, and I suspect that for me that pleasure is about to go away. As are a very great many.

Actually "It is in the middile of nowhere , and that's the way Curtis LeMay wanted it". Why am I suddenly feeling nostalgic about Guam?


Maybe on this subject, I should just stay "offutt"......

Three years with a possible year off for good behavior. We had thought that Lou could retire, but apparently they are giving trouble with her two years of active duty enlisted time not being "applicable" . What ever that means. So this was a bit of a surprise. I thought I only had one more move ahead of me (the one home).
