Had two friends deployed over the last 4 days. One is now in Kuwait City (fortunately) to load and unload cargo ships as part of the Naval Reserve out of Ft Dix. The other is career Air Force out of California, who was put through the Combat Life Support training course and embedded with the Marines in Iraq. He -thinks- he'll be in southern Iraq. But I think only the Army works southern Iraq, and the Marines are still street fighting up north. He'll hear a thousand rumors of where he's going between his flight to Riyadh yesterday, and hitting the ground somewhere in Iraq tomorrow (with a layover today in Kuwait City).

Air Force NCOs with the Marines as Corpsmen? WTF is that?!?

So as if my life wasn't difficult enough with a wife and three daughters, I now have two other wives to help out if needed, with one of them being in California and without any family out there to help her.

The Military must be truly desperate for people. And I think this truly sucks.

Despite the two family vehicles, 3 kids, wife and mortgage, I can finally realize the dream - 88 TA almost all stock... for now. http://www.cardomain.com/id/untameddave Wanted this - , but ended up with this - for free. Can't argue with free.
