Headed to Afghanistan
#1
My fellow forum junkies,
Well, I guess I will be in and out of the forum for the next week or so. I will be deploying between the 1st and 2nd week of April and am getting all my gear ready and making sure my family is squared away before I leave.
I'll drop in and let you guys know when I reach Bagram Air Base in Kabul. I should have internet over there in my quarters. (I better since I start class in May) I'm told the internet alone is around $75 a month.

I'll be in and out, so you can still reach me here or email for those that have it. I get online everyday (except for the travel days).
See you guys later, and keep on testing,

If I do, I'll be flying. No convoys for me. Other than a few times, I should be a FOBbit.
