Last post for a while

I have been on Tnet for about three years and have been amazed at the history that has been dug by fellow members. I just finished what will probably be my last hunt for a good while (two Wheaties and a 58 nickle). Like many others before me on Tnet ,I am being deployed to Iraq but only for 6 months. I try not to complain being I know how easy I am going to have it compaired to the ground pounders that are winning this war. Remember that what you see on the news is only half truths and there is progress being made . The Media to me is fueling the enemies fire and not telling the stories of the heroes on the ground. I am in the AF and will be in side the wire the whole time so complaning is not an option when I will have it good compaired to most of the people over there. Good luck and I hope every one on here digs at least one gold coin ,just leave one for me when I get back.

Thanks for all the nice replies ! I fly out in a couple of days and I just found out that I made another stripe so life is pretty good. Reading all the replies makes me relize how great of a country we have. Thank you all very much!

Godspeed birdman. It doesn't matter what part you play in a battle. It's when you don't play a part at all that you become nothing but a lamprey benefiting from the service and sacrifices of others. There is no "safe" place over there but that fact alone makes it much safer over here. Thank you and all who serve with you!!

All I can say is good luck and thank you, thank you, thank you. It's people like you that allow people like all of here on TN and everywhere in this great country to do what we do. Here's to you....

Birdman,

I promise you that when my three young boys get older, they WILL know the sacrifices that you and all the other Service Men and Women have made, to keep this GREAT Country safe.

God Bless You and it cannot be said enough, Thank You.
