It was bound to happen!


It was bound to happen! After celebrating 10 years in the United States Army and spending the last 8 years state side with the family the Army has decided it is my turn to fight. I received notification on Friday the 18Th of July to report to Fort Riley, Kansas for up to 179 days training prior to deployment in the Middle East. The Army has decided to force my hand at reenlisting. The plan was to wait it out and see what benefits I might get offered or to try and stay in San Angelo until Alisha graduated from high school. Unfortunately the Army said they are not going to wait on me and gave me an assignment. I either reenlist and go, or Get Out! So if anyone has a good tip on who is hiring let me know, for it looks as if it is time for this Soldier to pack his bags and go home.
