My Summer Vacation
Like every summer, I take an extended vacation. I stay in only the best rooms and treat myself to finest of luxuries.
Here's a picture of my barracks. I'm staying in a four man room. The next picture is my living area. It is an 8x8 cubicle. I now it is messy, but I had been in the field for awhile....

Hi Sarge! Nice to hear from you!
That's a lush looking resort hotel you're in. Air conditioning, golf greens right out the door, feature windows... I'm sure they'll have all sorts of fun recreation activities for you. Where is it? Bahamas? Bermuda?

Hey, Sarge! So glad you're in touch. Your digs look functional and relatively easy to clean. In my book that's good! Looks warm and pleasant ... hopefully not too warm. Keep posting pics, please. When my hair grows past military length I may even post one too.
Lots of hugs, stay in touch.

I'm at Joint Forces Training Center Shelby. Even though I make cracks about this place, I feel more at home here than any other place in the world. I feel safe & secure. While the work is tough, I find it greatly improves my self esteem/depression.
I've been visiting this little resort since 1979

Well, it'll be a tight squeeze in that bed, but I have lost weight.
Just warn the other three, because I am not into sharing! Glad to have you back here. Even if you're there.

I last visited this little resort in 1963.

Sorry Classicman, my email & internet often suck when I'm in the field.
BB - Let me know about the meet & I'll try to take a pass. Griff - I'm the range NCOIC for a company of Brads. I got to go down range on a familiarization run as the BC (Bradley Commander). New experience for me because the heaviest vehicles I usually TC are a Cayman or ASV. Here's a pic of me in my M2A3.

Here's the view from the range tower where I work. The Brads go through a series of engagements with pop up targets on both day & night phases. They use their 25mm cannon & co-ax machinegun. Loud, but the tracers are beautiful.
