When we would go we went all the way to the back of the platform and would run and do a head dive onto the ( Read more... )

Last night I took out some R&R people here on vacation from war. There was a married couple and another guy in my group. It was really odd to see a married couple come in together. They are real lucky to be stationed together. Anyways we went to Dairy Queen to get a quick bite to eat. After we ate we were off to the the rugby bar. Later in the ( Read more... )
