Well crap, I just knew this would happen. My guard unit just got activated. I'm leaving on the 9th of December for Fort Lewis, Washington. After that I am off to who know where, no one is telling us. Here is a link to the article

Good luck Tahoe. Be safe and strong. If you get a chance send us word on how to send you letters, packages etc. And if you end up in Fallujah, look up PFC Paul Herrick. My kid.

Hey Tahoe, My brother is stationed at Ft. Lewis, and, last I heard, is involved w/processing various Guard units that get activated (or have to do whatever training is needed). I'd tell you to look him up, but he's kind of out of action temporarily, having just had some foot surgery. Be safe!

I just had a neat suprise! One of my former students just stop by for a suprise vist. He just completed Marine basic and is on his leave. He's going into "Crash and Rescuse" as his area. He looks great! (one of my other students called him "Buff Man" LOL! ) He's off to complete his combat training and then on to his MOS (his field of study).

He's a great kid! I wish all of you men and women saftey and protection!

Thanks to everyone for all of the support. I will make every effort to keep everyone updated, this will depend on the amount of internet access I have.
Buddah, correct sir. I will have to go before you arrive.
dhutch, you got it.
Tom T, 31R. I work on microwave radio communication systems. It sounds pretty safe to me, but you never know.

God Bless bro'. At least looks like you'll not be headed to Iraq. Since you're comm support I'd bet you'll end up somewhere relatively safe and away from the action, in southeast asia so they say.

You have my email addy, if there's ANYTHING I can do for you while you're away lemme know, I'm in Reno often for biz.

First BP dinner after you're back is on me, I'll carry your portion!

Good luck Tahoe - look up SGT Rock when you get to Baghdad (1SG Engman G/2/2 ACR) - unfortunately he will probably still be there by the time you get there.

Tahoe - seriously e-mail me. I'll send you my address. That way when you get where your going you can let me know yours even without internet access. My son's camp doesn't even have phone lines yet. Just think of how many goodies you could get in Trail Talk care packages!!!

Hey all - what would you send Tahoe?

Good luck to you... and may you return home safely.

I sincerely hope your unit doesn't have to stay there that long, and you're not "in the thick of it".

Take care!

"Hey all - what would you send Tahoe?"


Darn near anything wanted or needed!

Tango, Make sure you think up a list of your favorite treats, magazines, etc. and you can count on goodies coming your way regularly.
Dhutch'll pass on your addy once your set. You'll be in our thoughts and prayers.
