When you don't know what you a doing most of the time its easy to keep them on the road. Now I know why maybe two or three of our V s were alike and another one could be different.
How the Boys doing? and that girl of your's.
Hope they are all doing WELL. Tell them we say Hi.

Louie, your insight from an operators viewpoint has been invaluable to me (and others), I love hearing your input.

My boys are well. Davey, the oldest just came home from his second, and last, combat deployment. His enlistment is up in February, and due to the Marine Corps drawdown, his MOS is closed to re-enlistment. They have been trying to get him to stay in, but since this would require him to train into a new MOS, and the ones he wants are all closed, he is going to get on out. Since he has such a short time left, he is classified as "non-deployable except in emergency", which doesn't bother me a bit!

Youngest, Patrick, is about to leave on his first deployment, so I have another year of sweating ahead of me.

Daughter is getting close to graduating college, and still maintaining that 4.0 GPA (she must get that from her mother).

They all send their regards to you and the other fellers.

Cheers

Glad to hear all are doing well. Tell Patrick to keep his head down. Know this is early Davey got anything lined up, maybe follow in Dads foot steps? And if the Daughter got the moms brains must have dads good looks( Both of our girls did great in school I know that they didn't get that from there dad, but they got my great looks)
Oh, and thanks for being so nice to me and the other boys.
Stay Safe
