Army Newbie
Hello Space monkeys!
My name is Elliot. I'm in Iraq on deployment. Love reading Chuck's stuff. favorite book of his was Lullaby so far. Got a signed copy of Diary from a friend while I was out here last time.
Anything else you want to know? Anything I should know before I start posting here?

Daisy: Sweety. That young woman is going to give her heart to a nice young man who has reading glasses and a tweed jacket and who has never done blow off the belly of a dead prostitute.

actually i would say hating the war is [i]in favor[/i] of the troops.
welcome to this place man. stick around, fun times are had all over these boards.
I'm in communications which allows me to surf the net almost everyday except tuesdays. I have a workaholics froup I have to attend.
I joined for a couple of reasons it's a little complicated. The short answer is college money but there is so much more to it than that.
Definitely not happy. Can't wait to be releived of duty. The army always seems to find a way to suck the joy out of life.
Yes.

well said, sir.
L, are you afraid of the backdoor draft?
What's with all this space-monkey jive of late? What happened to good ol' sea monkeys?
Hi and welcome, Dead. I could tell you some things, but it'll be more fun for me to watch you fly by the seat of your pants.

I don't know about that, but a slip of the hip can cause some good kind of trouble.
A Vendetta production. <3

[QUOTE=snuffy]are you an army of one?[/QUOTE]
definitely not! More like an army of negative 4. if it takes a single soldier to do a job it usually takes four of them to fix it after I'm done.

I think it's the stupidest peice of crap I've ever seen I mean who actually beleives you can lose weight by shocking your stomach. I'm sorry what were we talking about?
No as I said before I haven't been able to survive the military without my comrades. if I truly was an army of one I'd be dead by now.

last question, then i will leave you alone. i promise!
didi you ever kill a man?
I realise you are just courious so I'll answer but just a tip. Most military personell are offended when this question is asked. Especially if the answer is yes.
No. Actually really didn't even know if I could go through the deployment the first time knowing that I might have to kill anyone. It traumatized me to the point where I didn't sleep for about a week before we crossed the border.

What you mean, "we", white man?
It's not easy having a good time.
Even smiling makes my face ache.

I'm in 57th Sig BN located in a large palace.
I don't drink so no whiskey for me. Plus I don't think I'd ever part with a Signed Manuscript.
