I landed today, got home, unpacked a bit and found all the goodies my wife has been picking up for my while I was away (I will put some pics up later). I have a MIAD, some MBUS, a MS2 and ASAP, some PMAGS and some other bits and pieces. I am very excited to start putting my smokewagon together. It's dang good to be home! :D

Had a real cheeseburger yet? They always seem so good when coming from abroad for some reason.

Thank you all for the comments. Very awesome indeed. Yes, it was great to see the mountains. Nope, haven't had a burger yet. Planning on grabbing one later this week. Still haven't seen my wife yet (she is at training at Maxwell AFB right now, which sucks). Yes, I can't wait to start putting the SBR together. Ordering the lower this week. :D

Very well put. Welcome home, brother! You go enjoy your goodies and don't look back. Feels funny walking around without a rifle, body armor, and a kevlar doesn't it? I'll never forget getting off the plane in Germany and walking across the flight line in my flack jacket and K-Pot and having one of the guys working the flight line tell me: "you can lose the flack jacket, nobody's going to try and kill you here." That is a line I'll never forget.

God bless you, welcome home, and relax; nobody's going to try and kill you over here.

I think beer is a higher priority than cheeseburgers. :)
Cheeseburgers are available in Iraq via Burger King.

Anyhow, welcome back. Where were you based?

Home was Balad but I didn't spend much time there. I hit about 15 different locations in my time there. I had a beer but still waiting for "the beer (fat tire)" this weekend. :D

Welcome Home! Take your time and relax. It'll take a bit for you to get readjusted, but don't sweat it and enjoy being home. I've been home since last October and I relish every minute with my family. You do the same and don't sweat the small stuff Brother.
