TreeStandBowHunter Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 That's right folks, less than a month and we are going back to the sweet ol' USA. Sick of earthquakes, typhoons, language barrier, having to use sign language to communicate, etc, lol. This move will also be my last move in the Marines because I can retire in 2013. Moving to Beaufort, SC for my last tour via about 45 days of leave in PA! I can't wait to get off this island!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaun_300 Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 That's great Mike, you've been over there for a while, it'll be nice to get back to the homeland. You should be able to hook up with Leo, I believe he's in Beaufort too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 I'd be chomping at the bit to get off of that island myself. That has to be tough to deal with all that. Welcome home and thanks once again for your service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lil hunter Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 From everything I hear about Beaufort; Japan would be a lot more exciting. lol. I'm across the country in 29 Palms now. I'm hoping to get stationed back on the East Coast once I graduate MOS school. It'd be nice to be within 1000 miles from home, and have places to hunt/fish from time to time.

Oh your at the Stumps, that sucks. I was at 29 Palms at a CAX back in '96, what's your MOS? Are you going to COMM school? I started at Parris Island back in 1993 and I will retire right outside there in Beaufort, MCAS. When I retire, I am having my retirement ceremony on the yellow footprints outside of the receiving barracks there at PI. From there I am not shaving or running for a year, lol. John (LifeNRA), you can buy me that beer/s in June Bro, I'll be home for about 40 days on leave. We can meet at the frogs hollow or whatever that place is called there on 72.

Tominator Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Good deal Gunny. Okinawa has new meaning to me now that I've read 2 books on it while watching the HBO series. Man, what those guys went through for our freedom. We can never repay them. Thanks again for your service. :gunsmilie: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreeStandBowHunter Posted May 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2010 Where are you staying in Pa. I'll come and see you. Will be staying at my Wife's parents house right outside of Palmyra/Annville. Man I never would have guessed getting my two vehicles registered back in PA when I get home would be such a pain in the butt. It's ridiculous.
