    Sorry MM, my leave won't be until August and the wife already has dictated the plans. EL, email me where you live and I will see if I can get out and about on a cross country to fly over your houses.
    As soon as I complete this post, I will be shutting down the computer to pack it away. I will drop a line as soon as I get my room and can get internet up. Adios Amigos

    My ex husband was in the Navy..and they always put acronyms on their hats..and always got in trouble , because they were so easy to figure out..until they came up with ICTS...


    it continues to suck.

    They never did figure that one out...

    Hated it then..Now it is "the good old days, by God!"

    Never misses a reunion of the shipmates..even though the Richmond K Turner is a reef somewhere now....

    From Sniper-66

    Got this update on Saturday

    We finally made it, Sniper-66 is in Hood. The flight down was pretty rough, we rode the front of a gust front all the way down, so we had 25 MPH cross winds the entire way, making for a very bumpy ride. We got to Ft. Hood about 1630 that day and thus started day 540.

    After arrival, we unloaded and moved out to the barracks. About 2030, we got our keys and at about 2031, the wind knocked a tree into a transformer and our entire section of the post lost power. We had to move into our rooms and unpack by flashlights. At about 0130 the next morning, the power came on, so we got a stark wake up with all the lights on all the sudden and the fire alarm went off. The fire department decided to finally show up and shut it off at 0930, after eight hours of it going off. When the fire department finally showed up, they came screaming into our area with lights and sirens blaring and their bunker gear on. Guess it was a sign of things to come.
    We have finally finished in-processing and will start the actual mob training this next week. I’m sure I will be getting more pictures soon.
    Take care all, I will write more as it gets more interesting. We have staff planning for the next four days, time to start clawing my eyes out!

    Couple pics:
