Hey Thanks guys, unfortunately not many choice locations at the top. In fact at this point my only offer has been Salt Lake City, Utah. Too cold for my blood, so I’m in a holding pattern over Ft. Benning until they find me something a little warmer.

Hey Chris,

You might rethink that SLC posting... its a lot better than a warmer Baghdad! :)

Had to take a new photo today.
Man I love this Army stuff almost as much as flying a Tri-Champ.

Guys, that is one sharp uniform. I can't imagine the blood, sweat, and tears(and years) it took to earn it. People like Chris only increase my respect for our service men and women. It proves that good guys don't always finish last. Don't remember where I saw this but: "Demand my respect and never earn it, earn my respect and never loose it". Soapbox OFF. David J.

I can't BELIEVE that you don't have those MSG stripes painted on the cowl or under the window of that Tri-Champ.
