Piiiiiiiiing, Shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssssssssssh, BA-BOOOOOOOOOOM!!!   That my friends is the sounds of Big Al ENDEXing his little 90 day adventure in Germany. I'd like to thank my sponsers, the "G" whose money financed my little vacation, BMW and Mercedes who provided my transportation, of course my good friends at the Scheifferhoffer brewery whose beir I consumed in mass quanties. But most of all to my P.net buds, Mudpup (much love brother, the dog training will have to wait until next time!), BS6 and Secret Agent JR (come on JR just one more beer!) and to my new German friend Harmut and his cool dog Bax. You showed me real German hospitality my friend and you are welcome in my AO at any time!! As they say all good things must end, but this has been a shit hot TDY and I will if possible take advantage of it all over again. Of course besides the memories I am taking home quit a bit of money too!!  Oh yeah, this was all about Big Al making the benjis!! I ain't gonna lie. HH6 will be very happy when she sees that per diem check, because I know i sure as hell won't get any of it!! Just before I left on March 2, I flew into Balad, Iraq just before midnight on 28 Feb and we took off at 0005 hours 1 March, thus making my February annnnnd my March paychecks totally tax-free!! In Big Blue we call that getting the double cha-chiiiing!! Hey hey now, before you start hating the player, I did inform two Joes who were escorting some classified shit down and back that they too were eligible. They didn't know about it and one said he had been doing it for six months. I told him he had six months worth of tax free coming back to him. Well informed is well armed. I left out of ramstein yesterday and got in around 1600 EST. I am now sitting at Pappy 5 FOB up in Augusta, GA try to get decombobulized with the time zone changes. I inprocess back in on Monday, fill out my travel paperwork, then I'm off to FOB Rebel for a little reuniting with HH6, Little Mortarman, and the always sweet Pink 5!! Then back to CAFB until around June-July. That is all fo now. We now resume our regular programming schedule.

| Arctic, I got Belgium (2), Luexemburg (1) and Germany (I think 10 or 11). I'd have to check my stats. I had about six lined up for France including 3 FTFs, but my trip to St Mere did not pan out. Buuuuuut if/when I get back, France is first on my list. The weather was a major factor for not getting more. Sometimes that rain just plain sucked!!! Oh yeah did I mention that I got three in Hawaii???? (a place you haven't got to yet?)

Al, glad you're headed home and that you had such a great time. Enjoy the family!!!
