I am emailing from Bagham Air Base, Afghanistan . I am deployed here till December. I know it's been alwhile since I have been on the board but internet is very limited here & I use it to talk to my wife. We are in the middle of some heavy stiff. Play for us. I will have alot more stories when I return. We ARE taking care of business. Tom

Tommy, good to hear from you! I will watch some baseball, eat a hotdog and bake an apple pie in your honor!

Stay safe and well.

Thanks, for the replys. It is tough here. All the forces are present here & always on the go. What a busy base. We watch attacks & exposions all around us. We carry loaded m-16s everywhere we go & have many alerts. It's sobering when we have "fallen conrad" formations. I work 12 noon to 12 midnight or longer with no days off yet. We are very busy cause our aircraft are flying 24/7. This is a different world. Tom
