Well the AF security would not allow the non-military drivers in and we had been waiting in the holding area off camp for about three hours when our new PL told us to drive the flatbeds ourselves and help unload them so we can backhaul and get home. While alot of the equipment chained on the back of the flatbeds had moved or something causing alot of pressure and we were having a hard time get the chain bindings off so we had to use breaker bars. Well I went over to the last binding on the truck I was working on slipped on the breaker bar and the binding snapped smashing the breaker bar into my face. Broke the lower jaw and fractured teeth on the upper jaw. A bittersweet injury if ever there was one. Spent a whole year lucking out and then this happens. Saved me another 5 months of Iraq, but cost me 2 years already of medical, and took me away from my team. I'm going insane being stuck in limbo as far as life goes last couple years. I can't go forwarded in any aspect of life until the medical is done. Everything happens for a reason and I just roll with it all the way. I'm taking this time to learn and grow as much as I can.

Same exact thing happened to my Grandfather once - except it was his lower.

Welcome aboard. Good luck.

Reintroducing myself

Great to be back to the site. It has been awhile since I have posted or been on the site, thought best to reintroduce myself to everyone before I proceed further. I Have been pleased to be a part of this site.

Finishing a reclass MOS school for 25C (single channel radio operator), coming from Aviation and now for BSC for 5/19th SFG, Colorado. Looking forward to graduating as Honor Grad (personal plug) and getting back to my unit to further my education. SF and SF Support has reminded me of the reason I came back to the Army and the Guard. The majority of the gentlemen I have come in contact with, uphold the highest level of professionalism and carry the badge of warrior on their hearts and sleeves. I am proud to be a part of this organization and am ready to serve with them in the most dire of situations.

"The kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force."

Good Evening to you all, Robert

I came here looking for a friend of mine, and I found him, or I should say, he found me when he saw my username. :cool:

Well hope I am doing this right place to start.
First, I am an Army brat, Dad was in the ASA, which did not extist. Most of my childhood has been sent on military bases.
Second spent four years in the Navy, most of it on the USS Ranger CVA-61, off the coast of Vietnam. 1971 - 1975.
Third and I think the most important my son is in his last phase of training in SF. My wife and I plan go going to Fort Bragg to see him graduate.
