Congrats to all of you guys on deployment, I'll be anxious to see all your posts as you beat me home and get back to living and riding. Keep the posts coming, there are a lot of us still away loving every post we can find about getting home. Congrats Brothers, Duty First!

Haha! Five months huh? Well Sam does it make you feel any better to know that I'll be back down range again, and home again before you come back? Sorry bro! Stay small my friend!

I can't wait to see all the posts by you short timers after you get back to the world. Thank you for your service.

It's been a long time since I was waiting to leave Bien Hoa, but I imagine the waiting is the same.
