Sign the contract.Re-up

Well it's been a great haul,but if everything goes as planned I'll be packing up the bug and movin to California.Long story short the Army keeps loosing people so now there trying to find them all. It's really bad in the middle to higher ranks so they will do pretty much whatever it takes to get back the old guys. They can make a new soldier but they cant make experianced soldiers, seems they disposed of a few that they could have used and are trying to bribe us all to come back.So I'm getting recycled.

I wont get to be Airborne Infantry again but at least I can still do something usefull and maybe just maybe throw some lead in the process.
I'm going back to be an interigator but that might change who knows.

So thanks for the fun,don't get too happy I'll still be around now and again for awhile. :lol:

Well Hell fire !!! Just after we about had you trained. Why don't you take "Grasshopper-1 " one with you. You can drop him in a certain part of San Fran. Good luck and stay in touch.

don't get too relaxed yet.I'm still here for now.After talking to the recruiter today it looks like it might take awhile. The games just started,if they don't give me somethin I want then it aint happening. Recruiters are pretty lazy until they need you to make their numbers then your their friend. 8)

Not happenin' Johnston....the recruiter informed Scott that it was a matter of national importance that one of us remain here if nothing else to simply irritate the ever-lovin' crap out of you.  It was determined that, having known you longer, I would survive the longest in the fight here.  Of course, this advantage will most likely not matter anyway.  I figured you'll bury me in a sea of airborne dasher parts in the first few days of heavy fighting.

I would sugest that if you end up the loan survivors you should re-establish the anti triangle coalition and forget pass grievances. Though we may arguee amongst ourselves,I'm sure we can agree the triangle hoards must be kept at bay. :lol:
