Hi Guys,
Not the best news for family and me, but I, along with my entire State's Brigade (81st Seperate Armor) , are in the process of being called up for Active Duty. We will train for 3 months stateside and then head to Iraq to releive another Army National Guard in an around Baghdad.
With a 10-month old and significant pay difference from civilian job, I can't say that I am too excited about this, but will do my duty.
I should be relatively safe - I am the Battalion Personnel Officer - S1, for an Armor Unit. Only, we are NOT taking our tanks. In fact, the entire brigade is only taking 14 Bradleys. Everyone else will be on foot or in HMMVEEs.
I will occasionally poke my head in these forums through January and then HOPE to have internet access over there. Will keep you up to date and will post my Army email address later on.
