Given the flight parameters in the Hindu Kush. I sure wouldn't want to fly in a Hind.

But that's neither here nor there. I hope you and your crew stay sharp and frosty in the days ahead. Some things we don't see coming.

Looking forward to talking some more.

Very few times!

It is beautiful to me, even here with just CONEXs and dirt and gravel. There are mountains all around, and the topmost ones are all clothed in their winter coats.

It is absolutely breathtaking when the air is clear enough to do a 360 and see snow capped peaks in every direction, Ms. B. LOL

I'd get wood for a fire and sit outside, but they told us no more bonfires. Sheesh.

Aloha Ronnie is a true American Hero. Not only did Ronnie serve heroically in Vietnam he also saved a boy hit by a truck in 1982; and most recently saved a lady at a restaurant who was choking. Check the story here:

God continues to put Ronnie in the right place a the right time. He is a true American hero and it is our honor to have him present with us at Free Republic.

God bless Aloha Ronnie!!

Thank you, but folks like Ronnie deserve all the credit. I was in during peace time. Ronnie and folks like him served us well in the darkest of times. Thank God men like Ronnie and his brothers have lived.

I sure don’t like your guys going without the warmest uniform available! That is NOT conducive to efficiency when they are cold! I may help you throttle that guy...he's heartless!
