Just wound up tight. Didn't start to grow until I got to jump all that light weight shit crammed into the rucksack.

He is a medical services corp major working for the OTSG in medical logistics planning and some other esoteric stuff. He likes to remind me that, until this most recent assignment, at least he was still on jump status and of course I take pleasure in reminding him that I have more time in a harness than he does time in grade. He's a good kid. Unfortunately for him he keeps on running into folks with whom I have served over the years so I sort of know what he is up to before he gets to tell me.

Outstanding! Must be frustrating for him that your net informs you before he can. LOL

I have warned the lad that SF NCOs are everywhere and it keeps him on his toes. When he graduated from Jump School I was TDY and when it came time for him to get his wings pinned on out of the crowd stepped one of my CSMs to pin them on, I know he was pleased but also spooked at the same time. I sort of joke about it, but I guess once you're a dad you're always a dad and while I would never tell him this, I am glad that I have a way to reach out and influence the situation from time to time when it is warranted.

Clandestine training. Enemy probable course of action too dangerous to estimate at this time. Cell will Charlie Mike until discovered. PACE prepared, SAFE selected. OUT!
