Refloyd, one more here to say Thank You!! Also please relay our thanks to your wife and children. Although they aren't being shot at, they give up a lot so that you can be there protecting us. Would love to be camped next to you and yours down the road. Thanks again. Guess I'll quit complaining about the cold too. Sharon
lET ME PREFACE BY SAYING: Thanks to the Veterans and those currently serving. Without them, we couldn't have what we do!

If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?

Hey! Our dogs are wandering and slipping on the icy snowbanks too! Whitewater, WI is south of me yet.... we are freezing our butts in Northern Wisconsin--- where they just predicted MORE snow tomorrow!
And to you Refloyd: THANK YOU!!!! What you and your family so selflessly give up, it's soooo wonderful that you are giving for us folks who sit and complain! If you and your family ever get up in the Wisconsin neck of the woods, we know lots of good camping places.... and would be honored to share a campfire with ya!

What is really "cool", is for me "over here" being able to come to this site (Thank you moderators/hosts/rv.net). And visit with folks that have the same interests as my family and I. It makes the time over here much shorter/bearable/meaningful. My wife and I tent camped when we first got married (25 years this coming November), bought a Popup back in 1990, and have taken the kids on many camping trips since. I got the "itch" to purchase a 5th wheel before I came over here, and after reading this site, man, I got the bug now!!!LOL (you ever wanted something so bad, you could taste it?) Anyway, I digressed in about 10 different directions, but, Thank You all for the support. And, Thanks for allowing me to participate in your good times.

Refloyd, I've thought of you often since you posted on this thread and keep my subscription to it in the event there is news of you.
I hope we'll keep this thread active with more news as time passes. Do you have any idea when you're coming home?

Ten more days, and then I will be leaving this country. I will return back to Germany where my family is at the moment. (I support 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment based out of Vilseck Germany). I will return back to Iraq the middle of July.
