jkm2500 0 #1 December 25, 2003 I just wanted to say Merry Christmas to all of you out there in the real world. It really doesn't feel like Christmas out here, nobody really went out of thier way. I gave my troops the day off so that they could enjoy some time to themselves, which means that I get to spend 24 hours on duty. The chow hall is serving up a killer meal at about noon today...it should be good. I hope that your holiday is better than mine!!! Merry Christmas!!!The primary purpose of the Armed Forces is to prepare for and to prevail in combat should the need arise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jkm2500 0 #15 December 25, 2003 To all, thank you for the kind words. It definitely means a lot to all of us to know that you stand behind us. Merry Christmas!!!! Zenister- KP is inevitable out here. I am down at Brassfield/Mora not enough people for Brown and Root. The Battalion Commander will be serving chow though. BTW it was a good meal, the cooks out here are awesome. Shark- If I make it out to Elsinore I will take you up on that jump ticket, thanks. My home DZ is SD Temple-Salado, Texas. If any of you guys make it out that way after March drop in and make a jump!!!The primary purpose of the Armed Forces is to prepare for and to prevail in combat should the need arise.

If it were not for you guys in the armed services, we would not be able to enjoy the holiday as we are back in the states. We owe you a debt of gratitude and a good meal when you get back Glad to hear they are feeding you well today. It was awfully nice of you to give your guys the day off, I am sure they are very greatful. Thank you again for your service and I hope this at least puts a smile of your face.

Zenister 0 #21 December 25, 2003 Quote BTW it was a good meal, the cooks out here are awesome. KBR hasnt made it up here yet either, nor has AFFEES ('we go where you are' lol) ...but the meal this evening was one of the best i've had in/around the military..and its was great fun serving the soldiers, cool to watch their eyes as we filled their plates and told them they could have as much as they wanted of whatever they wanted.. annoyed the mess SGT a bit, but it isnt as if he's going to save the leftovers.... i'm off to my cot soon, i've got a bad case of FPS (fat puppy syndrome) i think i'll sleep well tonight no matter how many mortar rounds we take...____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

murps2000 86 #22 December 25, 2003 Merry Christmas to you, also, and thanks so much for your sacrifice. If you're ever on the eastern shore of Delaware, or at Orange, VA, or maybe down at Carolina Sky Sports, or wherever you happen to catch me I'll cough up a jump ticket, too, as well as a drink of whatever I have. That goes for any of your other jumpin soldier friends. BTW, be careful when Santa comes over, I'm not sure he's equipped with an IFF transponder.
