Don guys in a company usually go home spread across multiple weeks. As for being on the top of your list all I can say is bring it on :fu

Re: Countdown!!
 

We have a huge company because we are a Brigade HQ, we have a Company, Battalion and Brigade HQ all in the same company... Some of the people who werent needed for the BDE change of authority got flights out a few days early just because our numbers are so large.

Re: Countdown!!
 

I made it home and to my surprize my wife and kids were here inVA to see me. I didn't they would be here from CA. They got in about an hour before we landed. I have some posts to put up and some people to thank which I will do very soon.

Re: Countdown!!
 

That is awesome Tabb, congrats, Jamie and I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Re: Countdown!!
 

still in kuwait.. leaving in about 14 hours.

Re: Countdown!!
 

Well, I made it out of A-stan. I'm in a holding pattern until I can get a flight back to the states. I'm stuck in a Former Soviet Union country that we're not supposed to broadcast our presence in, so I won't.

But it does feel a little weird, like a Soviet base in Tuscon, AZ would.

Good thing we won the Cold War!

Should be back in the states in a few days.

Na Zdorovie!

Re: Countdown!!
 

Good to hear you got home save Tabb, and even better to hear that your wife and kids surprised you!

Re: Countdown!!
 

??? As far as I know, nobody won the cold war. And if you really want to name a winner, then I would call the people in the former communist countries the winners, they gained a lot of freedom with the fall of the communist leaders.

Re: Countdown!!
 

safe travels! :usa

Re: Countdown!!
 

Ronald Reagan won the cold war, which, in turn, was a win for the world.

Have a safe trip home Capt. ... Thank you for all you did :salute:

Re: Countdown!!
 

Congrats on finally getting out of there!!! All of us know the feeling of being stuck in customs, for hours on end, don't worry it'll all be over soon.

[quote=stitch;133188]Hey, We spell that Tucson here in Arizona :cbQUOTE]

I have no excucse. No offencse intended. Csorry about that. :D





Still stuck here in the unnamed FSU country. It is freakin' cold. When I think about how far south we are from Siberia, I can't imagine how cold it must be there.

Re: Countdown!!
