I don't post much here... several reasons... 1 I am a First Sergeant and because of that I just don't have spare time like I used to have before getting promoted. 2. I am back in Iraq so the connection isn't very good. and 3 for some reason my computer won't display this website correctly... which leads me to this "report"

I am home on my two week R & R and am half way thru this deployment... and I have gotten out and done a little fishing since I have a few spare hours...

yes this is the AMAZING rod some of y'all sent me the last time I came back.. I take it with me every time I go fishing.. still waiting on a 10 plus pounder on it but its great working towards it...

The fishing has been VERY tough the couple of times I have gotten out but its better than being in Iraq that is for sure!

well just wanted to let y'all know I am still alive and still very grateful to the folks here even though with my busy schedule I don't and can't get on here like I want...

god bless

Thank you for what you are doing!! Great to hear you are getting to do some relaxing fishing.

Glad you got out. Thanks for your service. If you ever get over this way give me a shout & l will take you out for some smallies. 

Thank you and glad you got the chance to get out and took the time to post it up. Nice pics. 

Wtg, Top.  I wonder how many people here actually knows what that refers to.  I'm sure that some of the other active/prior service people do.  Keep safe on the next half of your deployment.  I'll raise a glass for you tonight.

Bless you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all you do top and congrats on the nice outing!

Thank you for your service.Glad you got out to do some fishing.

Rock Steady First Sergeant!
