Ex-girlfriend has a son-in-law just rtb'd to 3rd herd in Hawai'i. How much time has he got left, Jimmy? If he's got any time left and wants to become a unit sponsor, Anymarinedotcom will let him sign up as a rep. Then we can send over all kinds of gedunk for he and the laddies. Passdown for all hands: anysoldier - anymarine - anyairman - anysailor dotcom will get you to a site where you can sign up and send care packages to members of specific units in each service. They'll tell you a bit about themselves, what they'd like to see arrive, and the approximate tour dates. Rich Uncle can get them beans and bullets, but it's up to us to do the rest. They want/need the contact, and we can give it to them. v/r... @JimmyT: God willing he has a successful tour and comes home to you. Ex-girlfriend has a son-in-law just rtb’d to 3rd herd in Hawai’i.

He said the first 4 to 6 weeks were really “hellasous”. Fire fights every day sometimes two or three, never for very long. Sometimes there were dead Taliban, sometimes there is no one there at all. With the temp in the 130’s they drink gallons of water all day but only need to urinate only once a day. They pooled their money and purchased a mule to carry ammo and water when they went on patrol. After 6 weeks of MRE’s I thing they ate the beast, but he would not say for sure. Things have gotten quite, they still patrol every day but they are not getting any contact in their area, only the mines and IED’s that are being buried for them. It was nice to see him on the AC360 show if but only for a few seconds. He looked good, dark though. I guess what little Apache he got from my side of the family has done him well. BT: Jimmy T sends.
