Howdy from Diego Garcia
I stumbled upon this thread today - I normally hang out on the C&V forum and have been fairly active there since 2009. I'm a Navy Information Systems Technicican Senior Chief with nearly 25 years active service; likely to retire in June of 2014. I'm currently one month into my second Senior Enlisted tour here with about 11 more to go.
Bill's got my back as far as CPs go; in fact, I just received my first load of magazines and crossword books from him this morning, so this is a shout-out to
qcpmsame: you the man!
To all of you, retired, AD - or just did a tour or two and went on to other things: thank you for your service, and be safe out there - particularly those of you at the tip of the spear.
For the civilians here: thanks go out to you, too! Without your support, both moral and otherwise, our Military would be a lesser entity. My hat's off to all of you who've so generously offered their support to the guys and gals on the front lines. Bravo Zulu
