So this happened today.....

We pulled it off folks. Rich and I brought FTE to Afghanistan with a lil G2G today. I didn't realize we were both both on the same base let alone the same foreign country till a couple days ago. So we decided that we needed to have a lil photo op. I'll get a Ford truck tagged in here tomorrow probably, won't be a dent but we figured it'd be ok to have a SD in here for this occasion.
Merica.!
