Life 2-17-07: Well, again, been awhile since I've thought to update this. I'm 4 months and a few days from getting out of the Air Force. It's been a fun ride, but there are some other things I'd like to do that aren't really in sync with where the AF would have me. Without starting a pity party, I'll just say that the last 3 yrs have been less than spectacular even though I thought I'd be doing some really high-speed stuff. I was getting out anyway, but this last tour was the proverbial "final nail in the coffin". So I'm heading back home to ATL, not too close to mom but close enough.

Afterwards, I held a couple of cool jobs in the cadet corps and, in the end, got commissioned as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Air Force. After that, I went to training at Goodfellow AFB, TX (oh great, TX AGAIN!!). This place was in the middle of nowhere!! It was worth it though because afterwards, I got my (>>first<<) assignment as an Intelligence Officer for the Air Armament Center at Eglin AFB on the Florida panhandle. Of course the fact that I got such a great location for this assignment means my next one will be in Korea o...Expand for more
