It's that time of the year again where I get drunk and sappy. I spent 8 years in the US Army, including 2 deployments. I lost a lot of good friends, so this holiday brings up a whole slew of crazy emotions. Anyways, I have actual stuff to post, but that will be during the week. Until then, here is my Platoon's video from our 2007 - 2008 deployment to Afghanistan. Thanks for bearing with me today, and remember it's not Veterans Day today, it's Memorial Day. Thank those who gave their all, and not those of us who lived.
Pech or Korengal? I just got back from Kunar. Sorry about your buds.

DeleteWas that the Wanat guys? That kid Davis got assigned to my squad right after that, having a fucking SPC with a silver star was a real trip. Awesome dude, we were on the honor guard for Ft. Sam and I got him the FUCK out of there as soon as I could. He didn't need to be around that shit. Got him his E-5 and made him the B.O.S.S. rep at the barracks, he hung out in a little office there and got blowjobs from barracks sluts until he ETS'd. Lost touch with him after that.
DeleteI was a little south of Baghdad with 3/509 from '06-08. Shitty times for shitty places!
My old man's retired outside Carson and I might try and PCS there, I'll look your store up when I'm in town.
Wanat was another company within my Battalion.
DeleteAs for Carson, I love it out here. The gaming community is very strong, lots of military and prior military that play as well.
