Maybe, not sure of schedule yet. You know Mike Hagans?
He is still not in the military I thought he released years ago.
All right, they're on our left, they're on our right, they're in front of us, they're behind us... they can't get away this time.

He lived across the hall from me when I first got here last year.

We are less than 36 hours from departure from Winnipeg. Still not sure of time in the Sandbox. I think 3/4 October, but like I said, that is my feeling only.
I can hardly wait to meet whoever shows up. Look for the big guy (6'2", 220 lbs or so) grey hair, either in ARID or in cam shorts, a PPCLI long sleeve maroon sweat shirt and carrying a weapon of some sort, as  long as its not a slingshot....
There will be a petite lady accompanying me.

I arrive back on the 4th, but I am not sure if I am working that evening or not.  I'll keep an eye on this thread...

I'll be wearing a blue AF sweater (or a sungleypac jacket depending on how cold it is), and a AR cadpat support our troops baseball cap or black toque. I will more then likely be in the line, or sitting around at a table using my IPOD for the internet.

Anyone kicking around? I'm back in KAF for a few days.

Sorry I missed it. Finally got out of theater, and am currently decompressing...

I may be digging up a necro thread here, but is anyone still around, or newly around?  I've only got a few days left here this time, but I'll be back a bit later in the summer for another go.

Just got here about a month ago, and depending on my shift I could be available.
