My daughter is going there, I was "told" it is not nearly as much as what we think.
We have verizon and just need to add global to our plan.
This is good, however your son will need a global phone. He most likely knows if his is or not.
Skype is a good way to communicate also.
When does he lve? Mine is the first group to go. She is part of Air Det.
I was just in PH and heard the 40 saying they were going to be pretty busy. Many projects to do. In a way that is good, they will have a hard time being bored. This is also bad as they will get upset if they work non-stop.
My daughter would prefer to work and do what needs done as oppose to sit around, (in her defense, she also likes to skate of early in the day if it is possible) cuts the boredom.
Timon? Or something like that....lol
Mine is Guam, she is Air Det. She has many friends going where your son is going, heck they most likely know eachother.
She is still making payments on hers as well. She just wants to know she has a car when she gets back. Sad though with them not knowing....back to where actually!!! For the decommisioning things will be fine, the other is just a gamble at this point.
Main body goes elsewhere and then from that point I get confussed, she was bravo comp. now as I said she is Air Det. I am thinking your son must be Main Body?
Kym, my daughter is leaving hers in the "rot lot".
I have been told as long as they have full coverage and a good and propery fitted car cover, they do fine in the lot.
Where is your son going? My kiddo lves the first week of Nov.
sorry to hear that
I wish b ut my son probably won't be able to come back before maybe August at the earliest...but more than likely November.
I was asking because I knew that the advance party was back but was still waiting to hear about the rest of the battalion...as that was the group my son was with...however, I got word from him today that he is in the states...I figured he was close as the time differences were changing when he would call but wasn't sure of exactly when he would be state side again...Thank you for the response to my last statement.
Any further information about the return of the main body of NMCB40...I have been checking on the hotline but so far no change in the posting...Thank You.
