Quick Update

I have been in the supply office for the last three days now. I haven't done very much. I moved some furniture around and that's about it. I guess I will be working more starting on Monday. I feel like I'm in prison though because I'm in a big fenced in area just off the flight line where I can see all the Apaches, I just can't reach them.

I am planning to go to the Korean war memorial in Seoul tomorrow (Saturday) so I will be posting pictures of that next week. Hope everyone has a good weekend and Happy Halloween.

Noooo!!

I was just told that I am probably going to be moved out of the armament shop for about 2 months to help out in the supply room. This is not a good thing because I was just starting to learn the more technical aspect of my job. I am not very pleased. I guess they needed someone competent to help out in the supply room because they are short handed. I will still be doing PT with armament but won't see them during the day and while they are all having fun working on the aircraft I get to do paperwork.  I know it sounds like a petty problem but I would really appreciate it if you could all pray for me for the next few days until I get everything straightened out and find out what is going on with the whole thing. I will be sure to keep you updated. Thanks.

Stupidity At It's Finest

This is a clip from The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. I love the reporters expressions. I don't know how people that are as stupid as this have made it though life without seriously hurting themselves. It amazes me.

I guess all I can add is Hooah, Daily Show, Hooah.

For Sale . . .

For sale: mint condition convertible. Great for those of you who like to drive with the wind in your face. There is some mild damage to the body however so I am willing to take offers.

Before we left Kunsan last week we were waiting for some crew chiefs to finish fixing a broke aircraft. The bus was parked next to the airfield and the fire department. There were many other vehicles parked out there for the fire department to practice using the jaws of life on. So being bored we decided to take some crazy pictures in them.

This was just another vehicle that was parked on post. I don't know what's in the water there that the air force is drinking that would make them do this.

The picture on the left is a small bunker. We found these all over the base but I liked this one because it was nestled away in the trees. The picture on the right reminded us of the Chronicles of Narnia light post.

100_2083 This C-130 Hercules was in the way on Friday. It wasn't as foggy in the morning so we thought the pilots would be able to shoot some hellfire's but then we were informed that the C-130 was going to land where we were working so it could load up. We were a annoyed by it but then we found out it was being loaded with live 40mm HE(high explosive) rounds and taking them to Iraq or Afghanistan. We figured it was okay then. That's a little more important then shooting some hellfire's for practice.

On Saturday we had to spray the helicopters d100_2095own because they had been flying over salt water which is bad for them. Let's just say the three of us here got a little wet. But it was fun because we got to play with a fire hose. Yeah!
