    Made it back state side

    Good evening all. I made it back home state side from deployment. Gained a lot of weight. They fed us good in the desert. I think I ate my weight in chease cake. Lol got till September to get into shape for my first PRT in two years.

    It got buisy at the end. So projects went on hold. I chose orders and i am transferring to NAS Pensacola in November. I get to go home and stay home for the first time in 17 years. Wife and I are hopeing to buy a 4 or more acres to homestead on. So all projects and reloading and shooting go on hold so we can purge the apartment of junk and pack. I will have the Navy move me but somethings i prefer to move myself (guns, reloading stuff, aquaponics. It may be a year before I get up and going again. Depending on where we go i will need to build a shop, greenhouse and start my mini farm. Lol i am not allowed to do projects in the house.
