Well, it is official ...

Post by ShadyDexter »

... I'll be kicking out for Iraq. I leave Az in first week of Jan and leave the states early March. Good money less boredom. Yay me. To bad about the gun thing. I figure I'll comeback when I have kids. That will prolly be enough reason to stay in one place for a while.

Just cuz you are leaving the States, doesn't mean you can't keep in touch. There is this new fangled intarweb thingy.

Good luck and best wishes in your endeavors.

Will try to give you a call and schedule a shooting event before you leave.

Head down, high speed, low drag, watch your six, and keep in touch. Who knows, you might be able to put that shotgun experience to good use, preferably at the range, but if necessary in defense.

THANK YOU for your service!!

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

do you have a .mil address? I'll still be here where I am when you get here. You can request I send you mine through outside mail first, or whatever.

Well, holy shit! I had no idea you were in Prescott Valley. Same li'l piece of heaven my little brother calls home! Man o' man, that's coincidence.

Anyway, be safe and keep your head about you. Good luck!
And may I say, from a moral point of view, I think there can be no justification for shoving snack cakes up your action.

Ooops. Sorry, I forgot to mention that this visit to the sandbox won't require the removal of my face pubes. I am going as a ridiculously well paid civilian. The question of weather or not I was going to return to the service was put to rest with the election.

As to staying safe, there will be plenty of young men with guns protecting me. And should, god forbid, one of them fall, I will take up his rifle and provide support to his squad mates.

As to what my email addy will be there, they are still working on getting me an AKO account. I'll send to you when I get it. As to the specific where, I'll be based in Baghdad and spoke out to whatever sites I must when gear needs my attention.
