ALL
I am still in school by the time AA week going. Is anyway that we can get photos post so everyone can share the moment? I wish I can be there just for once. It's been a long time..(since 98).


I second the motion. If you search flickr or do a google image search you can find a few of last years AAW. But it's not easy to find a site with more than a couple of pics.
I did enjoy this one: http://www.blackfive.net/main/2006/10/the_heavy_drop_.html

Of course, more often than not, you find this:

In some cases faces may be blackened out for OPSEC reasons.......

Completely understood. I am all for it, just for the event itself that I want to see. Other than that, it's not worth to compromise security.

He's not worried about security, we just want to ensure that you dont lose your lunch when you see him.

Ok, we need to start to compile a list of people and a call list so we can coordinate AAW get together.

I'll manage the listing... send an email to me at rigger@paratrooper.net and include the following information

  • Username
  • Real Name
  • Dates you'll be at AAW
  • Your location at AAW (unit barracks, off post housing, hotel name)
  • Contact Phone (mobile phone preferred)
  • Preferred Contact Email (for group updates)
  • Transportation: Are you mobile or dependent on public transit/taxi or pickup?

What I will do is pull this information together and we'll try to work up a schedule of who is where and when and plan where groups of us are going to be during the various events.

Can he handle rice and kimchee? That's my lunch, if he can, I will give my chopstick too.
