Damn man....I can relate.This isn't your first rodeo, so enjoy the days you have left back here.

I can certainly understand, and I feel for ya. My first duty assignment took me to Desert Shield/storm. I deployed every other year since. The year I didn't, I went to Korea for a year. After 15 years I had enough.

Sorry to hear that news Vinny, Is there a chance those plans may change given your family situation? It seems like your wife's due date and your deployment day are very close.

Sorry to hear man. Just make sure you give us the correct way to send sticks while you're deployed ok?

Thanks for the replies, i love you guys, this forum really feels like an extended(though delightfully dysfunctional) family. Eric, we're having a boy, around March 18th-ish. I will be able to get online from the ship and will still be able to recieve packages(and SEND them so dont get any bright ideas). I'm feeling a little bit better about it today, have a hell of a headach though....think it was like 6 drink minimum on vherf last night...

I apoligize Jetmech. It was not aimed specifically at you or your situation, but is one of my pet peeves. After being in the field, courses, tdy, deployed, detached for greater than 50% of a 21 year career to hear someone, or even better their wife, gripe about being deployed is irritating. "Johnny has been deployed 3 times in the last 8 years" or my fav "He missed our regular skype time" or even better "he hasn't responded to my facebook post" I am truly sorry but with modern communications, it is 1000% better than waiting in line for a 2 min phone call or trying to go through some pissant 3rd world shithole's telephone exchange to call home.

Is this a real statement? Who is the last guy that said "Boy! I can't wait to go fight a war the American people don't believe in. I'll probably get stationed on a base where my "allies" are on the Taliban payroll and think blowing themselves up at a crowded DFAC or base church is a great idea. I might not be getting paid because the Government can't keep the budget right, but I'm sure my wife and kids will be just fine." I'd be worried about someone's wife who was happy that their husband was deploying. Deploying is always bittersweet. You're going to do your job and to put in to practice all the skills you've learned from training. But leaving your family is obviously tough, and there is the chance you're not coming home. I'm done jacking your thread, my bad! Going to end this on a good note....Vinny, you know your CCom family loves ya and is going to make sure your boat (or is it ship? I forget) does not run out of smokes
