I'm not quite home yet but I am back in the USA. A couple of days of demobilization crap here at Fort Hood (Killeen) Texas and I'll be home. We came back with the same amount we left with. We were only in Kuwait and they haven't gotten involved in the Al Quaida nonsense, YET! We had a few car crashes on the highway and anybody who knows how those morons drive knows that living through a crash in Kuwait is no mean feat.Now all we have to do is get everybody the next 1500 miles and we'll be good. I was very happy to kick the dust from my shoes when I left that place. It might not be as dangerous as Iraq or Afghanistan but it still sucked balls.
Now all I have to do is keep my sanity for another month and I'll fly out to California to pick up my beautiful 2006 Silver Tiger. Thanks again to all the knowledge and fellowship I found on this forum. Y'all are almost as good as boobies and beer!
Cheers,

Yup, there are a few of us big Tit's on here :ImaPoser :friday
Glad you got back in one piece and with your sense of humor in tact, I know exactly what you mean about the driving ....... where's my camel :lol:
Great to hear you're back ok Taz.
And I know what you mean about their driving. I came across an incident in the dark once, Mercedes 500SL vs camel about 100 clicks into the desert. Now a camel is about half-a-ton of meat, blubber and bone on four stilts, cleverly positioned so that if you hit those stilts with the bonnet of a Merc at about 70mph, the stilts fold and dump the half-ton mass straight through the windscreen. Sadly, once the camel (less stilts) is inside the Merc, there's no longer any room for the four occupants who were all totalled (as well as the camel).
I just know that driving between two lines of semis going in opposite diections at 90mph in a Lancruiser took years of my life.
Welcome home Taz

They hobble the buggers with shackles so they can't run in the night :shock: and the stilts don't show up too well in headlights, by the time you see the body at 90 it's too late.
I used to dread drives back from the drydock accross the desert at night :shock: :shock:
welcome back bro,
Any deployment is always tough and dont let anyone tell ya any different. Also know what you mean about the driving, just glad you all got back safe.
