Pretty cool forum
Yeah pretty cool to have a motorcycle association that has a forum for military folk. I personally am finishing up my time in the Navy less than 90 days left then I'm out. Lil back ground, sign'd up for 5, been in Lemoore CA for 4 1/2 out of the 5. First deployment was jan to july of 06, 2nd was jan to april of 07, 3rd was end of may to end of nov 08. So yeah I know how the deployment thing goes, 3 in 3 years, not fun. Seen a few countries in the western pacific over my time. Job- f-18 mechanic.

dynamic entry is the fancy term for, okay, you blockaded the door, or are trying to channelize us into a killzone, so we'll enter through;
A. your windows B. Your walls c. Your ceiling D. Your floor E. Reduce the home We have a formula to calculate the net explosive weight to use on breaches, where P stands for Pounds of explosive. When in country, P=plenty.

Former AF pilot here that spent years in the middle east. If you ever need anything give a holler. Both my younger brothers are army now. Thank you for stepping up to the plate in defending our freedoms and protecting us from tyranny.
I kinda wish in hindsight I would of done the total guard route in my past. I think that sort of organization would of been more appealing in the long run. |

I won't criticize anyone that has done their deployments A/D, Guard, or Reserve, and no I am not talking about the 2 weeks per year deal, more like full on gone for months at a time deployment.

You have no idea how right you are. I've been her for almost a year and just found out there is a pool!!! So I went there today. Not a bad little setup. There was so much chlorine though that you can't even see your shorts under the water. Gotta make this water as safe as you can though. You never know what you could get swimming in it.
