The next year is going to be a long one for me, Tisha, and Gabrielle. I got my deployment dates. I'll be heading off to Afghanistan for three months later this month...come home for six weeks and then do another seven months in Iraq. It's a bitter sweet time as "I" believe I will be doing good things to ensure a better, more secure future, for Gabrielle. I've been blessed with being home most of the first three years of her life. But now it's time to get back in game. I've been busting my ass training, working out, and getting mentally prepared to endure being gone for 10 out of the next 12 months. I'm not sure how much I'll be on, but I'll check in when I get a chance. :ilovesrtc:
Thanks for what you do Bud...you take care and get back here safe...keep in touch while over there.....
Be safe and kick some ASS buddy. You KNOW that we are very PROUD of what you do to keep us SAFE and FREE?
Thanks fellas! I'll be sure to have a good time. Can't ensure safety....but I'll take every precaution to increase security. Ironically, my tires are getting bald and I was wanting to try out the NT05's. But, I don't want to put them on only to have them bald by the time I get home. So, I'll probably go with ol' faithful and throw some V's on her for the trip! LOL
Here, here!!. Take care of yourself Rick and once again, thanks for allowing us to live the life we do. :thanks:
What they all said. I'll miss you on here. Hell, I've been missing you on here. Watch your ass and try and come back in one piece. :hug:
Quit cha bitchin panzy boy.... retirements right around the corner for ya! Stay safe brother. Anything the girls need let us know.
kick some motha fuckin insurgent/taliban ass!!!!!!! GO GET EM BROTHA.... we will be here waiting for the good word
Good luck out there Bud! Everybody here appreciates what your doing. Before you know it you'll be back
Thanks for the kind words folks. This will be a bitter sweet year. As much as I'm looking forward to getting back in the saddle and "getting some". I'm also missing every holiday, my 40th birthday, and my daughters 4th birthday. I've been gone for the past month, and am leaving on deployment in three weeks. I got home today and took my daughter straight to the pool, followed by some tickling/wrestling, went to the lake around the "Eastlake Proving Grounds" to feed the ducks...and do some more swimming, went to Best Buy to buy her a new movie, and came home and danced with her. I sure love having a daughter....sure will miss her!!
rick, you know how i feel about what you do and what you stand for. remember our talk at SF08'........ take care of yourself, and be safe. i very much will be keeping you in my thoughts!
dont be modest! you're the only SEAL i know that doesn't tell everybody they meet lol. watch your back brother, things are intensifying over there, sure hope we can link up but regardless, you're in my prayers.
