Certainly not a loser I am sure, after all, you did set up this great forum!
I plan on a trip home after I finish my Hawaii tour, we'll have to meet up.
I just realized all the typos in that post...my computer was dragging and missing key strokes (I type pretty fast.) I reformatted it and finally went to Vista. Seems much better so far.
Iwo was probably one of those crowning moments, it was about my most interesting deployment ever. Digging in the jungle in Vietnam and Laos will never be the same! I am actually backing off on the deployment schedule some. I may only do one or two more missions. In Sep 09 I'll take one more assignment back to somewhere on the mainland, try and skate as much as possible, finish my Master's, and then retire Sep 2010 with a bit over 23 years in. I hope to move into Hospital Administration with the VA system. Should work out well.
