December FTE Missouri chapter chat & BS thread, all welcome.
Well ok, I'll do it since the chapter leader (Hello Terry in KC) decided to sleep in, he probably worked late last night anyway.
I actually forgot its the 1st of Dec, and I am even 10 hrs ahead you you all.
And evidently so did everyone else in Mo except for Boon and Mosouthernboy. (And he is in a different time zone too)

Good Morning Everybody!
Well, ....December already. ....Holy crap!
Boon, the plan is to have EQ at the jamboree. I need a trailer and tow truck before I commit to that, though. I'll at least have one of the three there. Possibly two or more, but we'll see.
Hey, Mosouth. What's your name so we don't have to type so much. We're a bunch of lazy old people on here. ...(except for that young guy, RC)
I put off putting up the Christmas lights as long as I could, so I guess that's gonna happen today. I have no other plans from there. I would like to get back to bending metal on the C-cab, but we'll see how that works out.

Yes only 2 more months.... of fed tax exempt, hazzard or dislocation pay, seperation pay, what ever they call it now, you earned it! And a ton more, vet to vet, thanks again.
We can try and plan a G2G when and where ever, it all depends on what most folks have planned work, life and truck wise.
We have not had a Jeff City G2G, Lake of the Ozarks x2 is as far that direction as we have gotten. We plan what works best for most folks, and Springfield is usually the rally point due to its location.
We have a lot of members in and around KC, but we have not made it up there either. We always try to have one at the 4Wheel Jamboree in June, but by then you will be in Ft Polk and that's a long ways to Missouri for a hamburger and Ford truck BS section.
Stay in touch as often as possible and we'll (more like they, cause I will be OTR till end of Feb) see what we (they) can set up. All it takes is a G2G thread and a poll on the date and location.

And yes I'll be home for 2 weeks, however the lake sounds good haven't been there in a long long time, so perhaps one of those days, if any of you guys got a Facebook? Or. Personal email I could reach you guys at? And yea absolutely earthquake my names dalton, but everybody calls me country or junior, hint at only being 20 here ina few weeks lol. And gl 👍👍 on the Christmas lights, since I'm field artillery we will just shoot some illum rounds up, other than the day to day stuff around here just looking at things for the pickup, I was goin to do some custom fab when I get back on the mirrors, I was gunna take out the triangle windows, and weld some kind of plate in, and then bolt in like the 05 cummins tow mirrors or the new 2014 f350 king ranch edition style mirrors, and fiber glass a case around it so it's just not a plate, but not sure if I wanna take on the project being on a army post for another year :/

No problem back in the day it was a 67T-Tactical Transport Helicopter Repair, now its called a 15T-UH-60 Helicopter repairer.
I was a mechanic for a few months out of AIT on Huey's and little birds. Then changed units and got to wrench on my actual MOS helo for 2 months then I became a crewchief/door gunner on the UH-60 Blackhawk for 19 years.
Retired out of Ft Rucker as a Flight Engineer/Door Gunnery Instructor, better job than being a millionaire **** star that owned Big Foot IMO, lol.
Alan you sapper's and FA guys are to tough for me, but my MOS did get me a FAA license and lead to this job.
Stay safe Dalton Country Junior, lol.

Limo tint on truck windows.....I brought this from the November thread.....
I've basically been in law enforcement most of my life. I was in federal law enforcement for 17 years, and I have always tinted my Windows with limo tint...saying that now let me tell you that it is not the best idea unless you have power windows. My cadillac has limo tint, but power windows. When I see a cop I roll them down....when I'm backing out of my driveway at night I roll them down...I would not limo the side glass on your truck. Back glass is ok especially if you have a sliding back glass. But side windows I would not. I'm going legal tint on sides.

Yes, originally my mothers side of the family is From around jc and Eugene brazito and Henley mo, my Uncle Tom, uncle rick and my granddad Raymond fisher taught me everything, Raymond (grandpa) put me through autobody school at 16 and I joined the army as a 13b field artillery on the m777a2. But I cannot wait to be a civilian again in a year and 9 months and do some painting and autobody work. By any chance do u still know any of the fishers living down there? Or u may know my mother, Tina fisher
