Coming home
So after a full year stationed in S Korea I am finally on my way home. Once I get settled in at my new base in Fl (not to mention make it through first sergeant school) and finally find a transport company I trust enough to ship my vette to me (Im thinking FEDEX) there are lots of projects I am thinking of. When you have a year to think about it you tend to make a large list. It will just be great to finally be home. The US may not be perfect but its home.

Yes, the USA is not perfect, but there is nothing like coming through immigration when the officer says "welcome home"

Your service is immensely appreciated. It's becuase of the sacrifices of people like you that we are able to enjoy our hobby. If I were nearby, I'd be over in a heartbeat to lend a hand working on your Vette.

Cocoa Beach huh? largest Ron Jon store is there (if you're into that stuff). I'm not but had to get the T-shirt anyway while I was there for work at KSC. Great eye candy around those parts.
