RE: Unfortunately it is close to being time………
Thank you for your service!! My dad did 27 years in the Army with 3 tours in Veit Nam and a tour in the gulf war as a civilian as a consultant protecting the Saudi Border
I just found out about 2 hrs ago that a close friend of mine in high school that was a Navy Seal was KIA. I was searching for him for about 9 years and today I get the news.
Sorry didnt mean to go on about my stuff. When you get back look me up for some trades.

Thanks for the thanks and tell your Dad I said thank you. Sorry to hear about your friend. No need to apologies for mentioning it. A lot of people have lost touch with reality, and what you mentioned is reality. I find it truly amazing when I think of it, 20 years of service and 12 of that we have been at war. I did 4 tours in Iraq and can count my blessings for still being here and have a kick-***** family that I can come home to.

RE: Unfortunately it is close to being time………
Congratulations on your retirement!!
I retired in 2006 after 25 years in the USAF.
You having a job to go to is a fantastic way to transition to civilian life.
The hardest thing for me to get used to after I retired was deciding what to wear to work.
Knowing that retirement check you've earned is going to be there on the first of every month makes it a little easier as well.

TGIF!
Did my last sea-bag drag this morning.
This will be the last active weekend trading till I'm reestablished, so would love to see some action.
Thank you,

OK, kept trading a little longer than originally posted, but it is truly time now. Have to pack the cards this weekend by Sunday latest.
Anymore last minute trades?
Thank you,
Rob
