I thought that I'd start a thread for those of us here, as most other major communities have one.

They won't generate such amusing photographs, and the venues will not be so varied, but at least we can co-ordinate RVs fairly simply.

I might be on the boardwalk tonight about 2000. Look for the guy in CADPAT AR and spiffy tan Safariland 6004 holster and sporting a prominent moustache and Loachman nametag.

Ah, too bad - I'm on duty tonight in the Role 3 MMU...

Some other time....

If you are there for a few more months, I look forward to meeting you. I'll be in civvies though, also sporting a prominent moustache.

Is the tour "moustache of authority" a prerequisite for the meet and greet? Mine is well on the way.....

Mine rather predates my tour, by thirty-three years.

Hopefully I'll make it through selection and will be able to see some of you at timmies in the coming months.

With my moustache growing since 21 Sep 08, I'll try to make it, though usually I'm euchred come evening. But I'll be the guy packing heat, wearing a "Garvin" nametag using nothing but Latin script (eg: No Pashtun or Dari for this cat)

Are little hoplites invited to these get togethers or would I be punching above my weight so to speak?

No worries, FD, your Regimental affiliation will put you in good stead in any social situation, particularly those involving drinking something (coffee/beer/dram etc.). You'll fit right in!

Have you stood beside Loachman, lately?

Provided that the social situation is not you catching your daughter kissing an RCR Private on your doorstep as he drops her off an hour past her curfew.

I will arrive on Wednesday for my first rotation as a contractor, I already have the moustache. I look forward to meeting any and all.

Excellent. Post here when you're free for an RV and see if anybody else is. I've been working odd hours lately and haven't had the opportunity. Soon.

My curiosity got me... When you say contractor, are you still working on aircraft?

WrenchBender · « **Reply #16 on:** October 18, 2008, 12:39:13 »

Klinkaroo, check your PM's

Now that my MOA is up to the standard set by Mortarman Rockpainter; I am up for an RV. Sadly though, he has decided my Callsign is not up to par.... these Headquarters Wallahs, always trying to change everything!

WrenchBender · « **Reply #18 on:** October 31, 2008, 05:46:18 »

Anyone up for sunday afternoon/evening at Timmy's ? I'm the civvy with a red beard & a Twin Otter hat. Looking forward to putting some faces to names.

Loachman · « **Reply #19 on:** October 31, 2008, 06:15:57 »

Subject to scheduling, yes.

airmich · « **Reply #20 on:** November 07, 2008, 03:42:56 »

Of course, Loachman fails to mention his lack of appearance for the first official meet and greet of TF 3-08! But that's ok. I still had a chance to have a chat and boardwalk-walk with him before I headed out.

I'll drop a line here when I rotate through on HLTA and hopefully get a chance to meet some others.

P.S. Mortarman...YOU'RE buying this time.

airmich · « **Reply #21 on:** December 02, 2008, 23:23:28 »

Anybody up for a meet tonight (Wed 3 Dec)? 1900ish at Tim's?

ArmySailor · « **Reply #22 on:** December 03, 2008, 00:22:22 »

Sorry....won't be there for another few weeks..........but Christmas Day?? anyone around?

airmich · « **Reply #23 on:** December 03, 2008, 09:26:22 »

Guess it was a bit of short notice for people for tonight. I didn't have alot of time to get ahold of most. I'll try to give more notice when I'm back from HLTA.

I'll still be on the Boardwalk tonight for a bit...I hear BK is back open!

Le Adder Noir · « **Reply #24 on:** December 03, 2008, 09:34:20 »

1900 is scoff for me at the yankee mess mich, but I may drift past if you will be around.
