or make sure the home is unoccupied. A year ago, a buddy of mine went back from Sage only to find that his car that was parked on post was broken in, and when he got home, it was looted clean. TV, guns, and all. It doesn't take much for these scumbags to survey the area disguised as whoever and figure out people's schedule and presence.
None of those firearms or skills are of use if the twerps come when we are gone. I think good locks, alarms, dogs, and neighbors are more crucial.
I'm still thankful of one of the advice from the senior QP here when I first got in town. Cheap and close to base in Fatalville means house robbery or worse. So I stayed on post for some time. A friend of mine who arrived at the same time chose to live close, and cheap. His house got broken in twice the first 4 months. They took his coin jar on the 2nd one. Goodness gracious.
Best wishes for the home owner's recovery.
