Well it looks like this tour in Iraq has come to an end. It has been a successful one for me personally. I have had another life experience that will change me forever and shape my future. Just want to say thanks or all the e-support that everyone has given me so far and the support that I am sure will contiue. I'll be departing here tomorrow night and leaving to come back to the states through Kuwait and Shannon, Ireland. I'll be back in North Carolina in the beginning of March and then its off to see the family in Texas for a few weeks and do some work on the trucks and take care of the very large pile of boxes and parts that I have ordered and sent home to my girl's place... I am sure she'll be happy to get them outta there... I'll be happy to have them on the truck just the same though. Anyway, I'm gonna draw this one to a close since I have to finish up some last minute things before loading up. The 24 hour countdown has begun!!!!! Thanks again everyone.

Ben :)

Yeah, we spent the night there coming out here because we had "plane problems" ... it was definitely a good time... I dont want anything like that to happen this time home... I am just ready to get back...

hey Cody, no prob man.... I may need a hand. I'll let you know. I am in Kuwait right now and I'll be leaving out of here in about 36 hours headed to the states... I am looking forward to getting back on familiar territory. Yeah, TheDanSmith, 1slow's right, I am a Marine... its cool though, its what I love to do. the only thing I like doing more than this is turning wrenches on my toys.... I dont have much time on here everyone. I'll post up back when I am in the states again. Thanks again.
