When I get home it will have been 7 months. Soldiers deploy for upwards of 12 months, though, so I can't complain.

Not that complaining would help anyway, right?

Are you career?

No, I'm not career. I love being a Marine, but it's not really a family man's game. I'm working on the last year of a 5 year enlistment now. I have about 10 months left.

Are you going to settle down here in SoCal, or will you be going back up North?

(If you get tired of playing 20 questions just let me know )

That's great Keith. I hope the delivery goes quick and easy, and you have a safe trip.

We are going to be able to stay on base my son was able to get us into on base billeting. I think it is the VOQ. And welcome home Marine, the wife and myself went to Virginia last year when my other son came home from deployment.
