HI TJ
You Keep your head down and in some good hard cover.
Keep in touch as best you can.
I am sure you will get loads of world wide invites so you can add mine to the list.
Give the engineers a hard time till they find some usefull MRR type material for you that will help the sanity for the waiting bit after the hurry up bit
You take care of your self.

Greetings Jack,
I look forward to seeing your posts on here again in the future. I am sure in your 22 years you have learned how to look after yourself but nevertheless the world seems to be a dangerous place in some areas. May God take care of you and your family.

It has been a pleasure having you on the forum. I pray for your safe return home. Maybe you can use your tour as a thinking time for some new projects. Hopefully you can keep in touch with us all. Later eh...Brian.

SORRY TO HEAR this , I hope this goes quick for you and keep in contact with us . take care
AND THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY . BEN
Well this is not train related, but I must share anyway. The US Army acronym, Uncle Sam Ain't Released Me Yet, has once again proven true. I got the word over the weekend that my pending retirement was denied and that I am to ship out for a tour of duty in OIF on 1 June. This is not my first rodeo, but it will be my last. After 22 years I just don't feel like having another government paid vacation at the 140 degree beach. In the end I am a soldier, and soldiers fight wars and follow orders, so off I go.
I will check in from time to time when I get the chance, I understand that nowadays they have internet cafés and very nice recreation facilities in the sand box, so hopefully I can make somewhat regular communiqués.
I've learned a lot from all of you and I will be putting it to good use when I get back next summer. Shame about it all is that only half of my garden is blooming now and I won't get to see the full splendor until next season.
Oh well, at least it's all tax free!
