{{{{{ OH, KAAAA-THY! }}}}}

On behalf of all the guys in the course and the barracks, THANK YOU! for the care package that arrived just in the nick of time! We were getting tired of MRE's...

[SevenofNine]

For how long I Don't knowww but sometime you see me on late night hours on FR post in and out on threads

Breaking news off AP wire reporting out of Chicago look like Tomkow don't have design Burka for Mike Dikta report that he option out on US Senate run

Yeah probably Chicago media was getting on his damn nerves

Also Wash Post reporting that couple days ago ARNOLDD met with George Bush Sr report is that Arnold may go to Republican convention go yada yada

That right hey Demos have Uncle Ted Kennedy we at GOP have Arnold


Also Fox news is reporting that French bank is being busted on part of oil for food scandel where they alleged that UN did money laundering on this bank during 1990s citing report that same bank officer was both of Friend of Saddam and French weasel Chiac

[Old Sarge]

Hey - did you see my news on yesterday's thread about Josh?

[Kathy in Alaska]

Good night and sleep well, Tonkin. God bless you good for your service to our country, both those years ago, and now in the Coast Guard Auxiliary and the Canteen. *HUG* Good night to momma cat and babies, ms run-a-muck, and Sylvester, wherever you are.

We've just started cleaning up from the exercise, and Graduation is set for 0900 on Friday - which could put me back at the Home Detachment around suppertime!

Have to clean out the barracks, the classrooms, the dayroom, and anything else we might have damaged over the two months we've been here...

Five of our kids are already headed for The Sandbox...

[Jet Jaguar]

Hey Star! Give my thanks to Josh. I mean it!

[Old Sarge]

did you see my news on yesterday's thread about Josh?

Yes, I certainly did, and I'm frankly amazed they let him take all that leave at ONCE!!!

[Jet Jaguar]

Godspeed to them...

[StarCMC]

I will - I hope I get to see him. He's in CA right now - don't know if he's gonna be released or kept there or sent back. Time will tell... Mom said they're hoping he gets out, but I'll be surprised with the climate today id he does.

[Old Sarge]

I can just imagine, Arnold saying, "Yada Yada..."

[StarCMC]

Five of our kids are already headed for The Sandbox...

May they all return!

[Jet Jaguar]

[Kathy in Alaska]

Busted again! I want the french and the UN to go down HARD!! They want our money, and then to tell us what we can and can't do. I think moving to France would be good.

Thanks, Seven, for the international updates.

[StarCMC]

From what I understand it's not unusual in peacetime to be allowed to take all accumulated R&R days off the end of your time, but, like I said, I wonder if it's different in wartime. I'd think it would be.

[Jet Jaguar]

Is he back in th US to escort prisoners or back for a while? That would make a difference. If he is back for a while, he should get alot of comp time.

[Kathy in Alaska]

And just HOW MUCH damage do "you" have to clean up? Did ya do good? Dazzle the brass? 5 of the kids in the class, or 5 from home?

[Old Sarge]

Five in the class - they leave right after the ceremony.

Five more after that.

The class joke is, we'll all have a New Year's Eve reunion in al-Nasiriyjah...
