So I find myself freezing my cojones off here at Camp Mobile while I inprocess to the 2ID...From what I have heard, I will be heading to the 4/7 Cav at Camp Hovey..Thought I would drop you guys and gals a note, let you all know I landed safely in Kimchi Land (after a long alcohol filled 20hrs worth of flying time)..

Make sure you loosen the valve on the Mickey Mouse Boots (and make sure you tighten it before you get off the plane).

Good luck!

Bullwinkle,

Glad you made it there safe. Keep your head straight and do well. You're in for a good winter. Hovey is a good place to be.

Quit listening to your buds when they say things like "kimchi-land." South Korea is a nice place and the people are good. It'll grow on you after awhile. Once you get past the hard-headedness and arrogant brutality of the Korean ego, you'll realize that they are a warm group of people.....and your tour will be worthwhile. Guys that sit around, drink beer, and talk crap about the people and the land will leave with nothing but a hangover to show for a good year abroad.

You're a bit too new in country to go out and see the sites I'm thinking, but just in case you're in Seoul next week, I'll be passing through Wed-Friday. Otherwise, we'll meet up I'm sure the in the future.

Take care, keep sober, and write home....often.

Adroomi, there is actually a sign just outside the airport that says "welcome to kimchiland", that's where I got it from...I hold to prejudices or preconeptions of Korea or her people...If it's at least as nice as the rest of Asia, I'm good to go! I won't be on an extended pass for quite some time, I should hit the 4/7 the end of next week, and get a local pass for the weekend, but there is no telling at this point, I'm just playing everything by ear.

The mountains here surrounding the camps are beautiful, that's for damned sure...Hovey/Mobile/Casey are sitting in a bowl, surrounded by mountains...When I buy a dig. camera I'll start posting some pics for everybody..

Now, if I could jsut find some cigars, I'm good to go!

Bull,

The first guy you see walking by smoking a gar, ask him where he got it. You're in the land of C*bans now by the way......
