Old home week

My team finally reached Afghanistan. We are in the capitol for inprocessing. It's really great to see all the guys from Buffalo. It's like old home week for me.

I received news that the team is moving out to the Southern region in a few days. There is a mix of excitement and melancholy. I am always excited to get to new places and people, but here I already know so many people and have such a support network in place; so i am divided.

All the guys here are doing real well and that pleases me very much, but I have to go where they send me. I'll fill you all in more when I have an answer.

Good to know you have your boots on the ground...for now at least. I emailed with your dad recently. I was hoping that you would catch up with my other half...but by this post it seems you won't. Make sure I have your address so that I can send you goodies!!!
