2 1/2 weeks (ish)

[BassinSoldier]

  Well guys...It's almost over.  In about 2 1/2 to 3 weeks I will be back on American soil!!!  I ain't gonna be on here much 'til I get home because of limited internet access at our current living area, but while I had a chance I wanted to say thanks to all of ya'll!  This fine gathering of folks has helped me stay sane in this wasteland.  I want to say a special thanks to folks like Rondef, Bassectomy, and The Rooster for the care packages.  Thanks alot guys!!  For those of you coming to the roadtrip in '09, I'll see you there.  I have been looking forward to that since I heard about it.  It's gonna be a great homecoming!  My lovely wife, my 2 beautiful daughters, my retarded german shepherd, and hundreds of dollars worth of rods, reels, and lures!!!!!!  So close yet so far away!!  I guess I'll cut this short before I write a book...simply put...THANKS!  And I will be talkin to you all again soon!                       -Joe

Joe,

I am glad you recieved the packages and that you and your troop enjoyed them, it is the least I can do to say thank you for protecting our freedoms.  I also look forward to seeing you on the BR trip in April 2009.  

WELCOME HOME and once again THANK YOU, you are a true AMERICAN HERO.
