Title: News from SK_Oldman USMC
Post by: SK_CROW on February 20, 2007, 04:12:30 PM
Those older folks probably remember Oldy who use to be really active in RSD.  He was in africa at one of our embassies when it was attacked by a car bomber in 1998.  He survived the explosion but was injured so they made him a recruiter.  I just got an email that he was being shipped to Iraq this month.  He sends his best wishes to us.

Ditto!  Tell him no re-enacting de_dust while he is over there.  Unless the CT's win, of course.

Send him our best Crow. Tell him this Air Force puke (the Marines know they really love us) says stay safe and hope to see him back on our side of the world soon.

Though later this year I will have the "opportunity" to bump into him over that way...

did he mention if he is still a Gunny? or did he make first sargent yet... either way good to hear from him.



Side note, I was less than 50 miles from fly'n into Nirobi to evac him and other US personel at the time.  But we were out of range for the Helos to make it in and back.

Get some Oldy, and don't forget to duck.
