Good luck and God be with you. I don't know how you guys do it. 13 months in Nam was enough for me.

I got a few months to wait before I leave, just enough time to put together a shopping list of everything I want to buy when I get back (and tell the wife I am leaving again).

Maybe just maybe, Josh will have the next shipment of headers ready by then too

Just forget about the car, keep your head down and be safe. If it weren't for soldiers like you, there wouldn't be a safe place to go home to. God bless you and be safe.

I always found that thinking about those things you want to do at home helped pass the time. It's a bit of normality amid the insanity to help you through the times away from your loved ones (and The Vette).

Be safe...been there, but one day you'll be retired and then wish you could take a young troops place instead.



I still have troops that I served with still pulling tours. I pray everyday for all you guys!
