Well everyone. This is my last post for a few weeks. Our internet will be cutting out by the time I wake, and I'll be finishing my tour of Iraq.
I will try and make contact, but sadly this forum is blocked for its content on our military free internet. If anything major happens, I'll send word through Ronald or Vanessa.
Until then friends *Warmly hugs you all*
"...So as you read this know my friends
I'd love to stay with you all
please smile when you think of me
My body's gone that's all
A tout le monde (To everybody)
A tout mes amis (To all my friends)
Je vous aime (I love you)
Je dois partir (I must leave)
These are the last words
I'll ever speak
And they'll set me free..."

I agree, nice poem, Labrn. Though I'd hate to think those are the last words you'll ever speak. Godspeed, Labrn, and congratulations on coming home. For what it's worth, I salute you. *stands at attention and salutes*

We all hope for your safe travels. And, if you should happen to stop in the Washington DC area, it'd be my pleasure to buy you a drink.

Well, I'm a little more westward now. I'm out of Iraq and waiting for our international flight home.
I'd like to thank you all, and this will be my final reply until around the 15th, where I should be back safe and sound in my own bed by then.
*hugz and kisses to all* I look forward to all your company once again, but not to the giant pile of "catch-up" that will be hitting me when I sign in to PBB once again.
Also Ashton, the words were not of just a poem, but a song entitled "A tout le monde" by Megadeath. I find them very truthful, and a safe bet of words to leave upon if they would be my last, for they are true. "To all of you, my friends, I love you all, but I must go."
Other than the fact that I will physically be gone for some time, the more spiritual "I must go, for it is my time" also comes into play at the song's bridge:
"So as you read, know my friends, I'd love to stay with you all. Please smile. Smile when you think about me. My body's gone thats all."

Indeed Tursi. I'm back home in the states, safe and sound.
I can proudly say we accomplished our mission, and with the prayers and thoughts of others, our unit is one of the few, if not the first, to come back with 0 casualties!
I'll be back, but there may be a few days inbetween my replies, as I'll be visiting friends and well wishers.
Til then everyone.

Labrn! Welcome back to the good ol' U. S. of A! I am thrilled beyond measure to hear the good news about your unit. And if you're ever out this way, the offer still stands.

Wait, you're back? That's great! I just wished I hadn't missed it. And it's even better that everyone in your unit can say the same.

Thank you everyone, and Xebulon, if I ever hit the East coast, I'll be sure to hit you up.
No worries Kommy. I try to make it so I'm not gone for too long.

Out of curiosity Labrn, what was your unit number, designation and insignia?

Well you be sure to have a good time then Drake.
Xebulon, I was with the 1744 Transportation Company. However, we didn't do our transportation job. We were changed at the last minute to "Cav Scouts" or rather, we were armored escorts within "ASVs".
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1117_Armored_Security_Vehicle
We were armored escorts for wreckers to go recover downed vehicles. We also took other ASVs to the "range" to get practice with their weapons.
I did various other jobs as well.
