I don't know if I let any of you people know, but I'm not scheduled to deploy with my unit to Iraq until August now. I didn't make it to my shop in time to go with the 1st wave of deployments....so I got bumped back to the 2nd wave. This is good news 'cause it means I'll be able to make one more trip home in the summertime before I leave.
Now...for the other news.
I volunteered today to take a special duty assignment that's outside my job field. I don't know if i'll end up getting it or not, because they're mainly looking for a corporal to do it...but if no corporals volunteer i'll hopefully get it. This job I'm trying to get will be as a bus driver lol Do all the laughing you want about it, but its not the job i want, it's the placement...I would get to go drive troops getting off the plane in Kuwait to base Victory in Iraq in Feb for a few months.
How sweet would that be?
