You have really given us a different and informative view of what it is like over there. Well shot and well captioned, a real treat for us here at PF, and no doubt greatly appreciated and admired by us all.
Still, I'll look more forward to seeing you in photos when you return and are no longer there. My youngest son was there with NATO, and it was pretty tough....even for a Lt Col...he damn near got killed just taking the Gen to the airport on one occasion, and a few with him were not so fortunate.
He is retired as of Spring a year ago, has bought a new home and has a new wife (his fourth....Army life is hard on marriages! ) and is beginning to return to the son I once knew before 22years of Army life...almost all of it overseas.
My two oldest grandsons (his sons) will soon follow his path. The oldest is currently in LDAC in Washington State, and the younger one in Airborne School in Georgia. I pray for them both....and you too, for your safe return home where will all breathe a good sigh of relief.
Best Regards!
