Have fun!!!
I'm gonna go and barbecue something...
NO DRINKING AND DRIVING

Hope everyone still gets to see fireworks in all this rain. Drive safely everyone.

BBQ was fine, finally had a burger I have been crazing for the last few months... but no fireworks... thank goodness!

Why no fireworks?
Isn't that an essential part of American culture of Independence Day celebration? Loud and Bright!!!
Or is it because you're in Europe?
Just checked, you're deployed... Got it!
Did you at least get a chance to drink?

Herknav · 07-05-2008, 10:09 PM

Europe goes crazy with fireworks... but on New Years.

I drank... soda.

Nic17fly · 07-06-2008, 01:46 AM

Newtothegame I am feeling the same way, we are on our 12th month of a 15 month deployment.

Thank You!

Vew · 07-06-2008, 02:21 PM

Come back home safe fellas. If you're close, I'll buy you a drink personally. Hell. I'll introduce you to some *nice* college girls

Nic17fly · 07-07-2008, 12:09 AM

LOL, I'll take the drink but I'm already married. However we are on the downhill now. Its always nice when the unit replaceing you is calling on the phone to find out all the details of the mission. Gives you a light at the end of the tunnel

newtothegame · 07-07-2008, 02:40 AM

I hear you Nic, we are on month 14 now. I should be in the states in late August.

Jon, Im going to be in Frostburgh, Maryland in December to visit family, hopefully with my car. Might look you up when Im back, I will be single, again.

Herknav · 07-07-2008, 03:36 AM

I am about to hit halfway myself, (just a few more days)...

I have no visibility on my replacement though...

newtothegame · 07-08-2008, 02:14 AM

I personally have 43 days left, but we havent heard or seen our replacements either. Go figure.

Hope you're a drinker, because we sure are here at WVU.

Nic17fly · 07-08-2008, 12:02 PM

We have 83 days left, and today we were making a RIP/TOA plan for them to take over, I'll tell you what...talk about light at the end of the tunnel.
