mrhaskellok, I and other friends are going to make sure he has a great time home when he gets here. I can only imagine what things he has seen out there...
I promise you, you can only imagine.
The trip home on leave is a nightmare..you are on standby flights only, and usually you only get 48 hours notice as to when you you have to get on a plane...mine was less than 6 hours. I knew I was coming home on leave during that week but then they just poked in my tent and said, your plane is leaving in 6 hours. Lol, then it was non-stop adventure all the way home. Oh well, it was well worth it. I just remember feeling strang getting back into "civilian" life. And EVERYONE stared all the time. [
] Anyway, really glad to hear you guys are going to take good care of him.
Peace.
