When were you deployed to Qatar? I was there in 2005 and again in 2007. During the '05 rotation the F-16s were there from Toledo and a couple other places. I was in the AR shop so I never touched the F-16s, but our flight chief was from Toledo. Pretty good dude.

When I was on B-1s, our AFETS guys were lifesavers. Loved them dearly.

So you were there when Camp Andy was still there. I, too, made a stop or three in Balad in '05. And '06. Fun place. I still have my Mortaritaville shirt somewhere. When I stopped through in '06 they had just set up the C-RAMs and the tent I was in was right next to one. Slept GREAT.

Hey EI, what's your avy?

No, I can't remember her name, but this was at Spang. She was popular. Damned cute, which for AF chicks is like supermodel hot.

I lived in Landscheid from 00-03.
