[Stonepicker1]

Hi everyone.

(UPDATE: "Patracy" just merged me back into my old account. Stonepicker1 )

I was Stonepicker1 on here a few years ago. Signed back on as Stonepicker. (email changed, so i couldn't log back in. ex wife deleted my email and phone account when i was overseas)

A lot has happened in my life.
I just got back from Kuwait in March after a year there. Turned 60 in April. Retired from the Army on May 31st with 39-1/2 years of service.
Going through a divorce and making appointments at the VA.

More later...

This site has been upgraded. Going to take me a little time to get accustom to.

Welcome back!

New format and some things - including a few rules - have changed but I'm sure you will get used to it, pretty soon... lol
(Former PM is now "START CONVERSATION". Feel free to ask questions.)

Welcome! Thanks for allowing all of us to have toys to play with.
Thanks too for having people like you defending our rights and freedoms.

Dang shame about the divorce part. Been there, done that. No Fun.
If you can keep emotions out of that situation you won't be as miserable.
On the other hand, decisions on toy purchases are all yours now...

Thanks.
Wife is getting the house and half of my retirement money now. All my fault.
LOL, no money for any toys now.

Welcome back. I suspect she didn’t want any of your CUCV-2s.

Welcome back. I suspect she didn’t want any of your CUCV-2s.

At first she was going to have the court auction all my stuff off. But after signing over the house to her free and clear. She said I could sell what ever and keep the money.

It feels strange to say welcome back to someone who was probably here before me. So I'll just say welcome and thank you, Sir, for your service.

Welcome "back" Phil. I was thinking you the other day when I was running around my field. Not many loadouts these days.

Service only cost me the first marriage, well the service and me at 19 but second casualty was all her. I have a keeper now.

 

[kendelrio]

Welcome back bud. Did the divorce thing too, they suck. Stay positive, as said keep emotions out of it and as soon as possible start looking for an emotional support M/V!

 

[WillWagner]

Welcome home Phil!

 

[Recovry4x4]

Welcome back Brother Phil. Keep your head up, it will all work out. How are the (adults) kids dealing with all this? Great to hear you're still kicking.

 

[wheelspinner]

Yeah I fully understand that “half my retirement” crap. But like @swbradley1 said “I got a keeper now”

I knew it was downhill when I introduced my ex at a party as “my first wife”
All good now.

 

[clinto]

39.5 years. Holy moly.

I hope your daughter's wrist doesn't have any issues pertaining from the break all those years ago.

Congrats on retirement.

Good to see you back!
