Chickenhawk and Rally Toes
|
Yes I know, its been forever since I last wrote, shame on me. We have been busy here people, gettin ready to go home and whatnot...we have mostly gotten everyones paperwork in order to out-process and the procedure should go as fast as possible, which isnt fast as far as Im concered..it will take over a week for a unit to out process but its as fast as we can make it. Tragedy struck the aid station this month, we found chickenhawk had passed away in the night. This little fishy has been with us since Camp Shelby mississippi, we smuggled him into Iraq in a water bottle when we flew over. It was truely a sight for someone to come into the aid station and see a fish swimming around in a fish bowl, not something you see over here ever, you cant get a fish anywhere around here, besides its a desert...you dont expect to see it. I like to think that he was theraputic..for a few seconds someone coming to us sick would see him and forget about thier headache and wonder about a fish swimming in a fish bowl. I guess the extension was just to much for him, we did our best cleaning his bowl and feeding him everyday, he will be missed.
So, Im sure a few of you have been curious about the battle between good and evil...there were some unexpected results to say the least. The rally toes race didnt really have any ground rules but evil cheated. the left foot may have been slightly ahead and the right was feeling the pressure, the other morning I awoke and the right foot, in a desperate attempt to win had actually grown in size, I guess Im not sure how to call this one folks, I never said a foot couldnt grow in size to have the longest growth, so im calling it a tie. lucky for me my roomate has the same size foot as my new right foot so he borrowed me an extra right boot to wear.
It wont be long friends and ill be home, i am excited! If Goober wasnt such a pain in thye ass id tell you when im flying out but lets just say i may be home before my B day if eveything goes smooth. so see some of you soon, take care all. Troy
P.S. the first picture is chickenhawk sleeping the eternal sleep in davy jones' locker, and the 2nd picture is results of the rally toenails competition.

| dude, i was so tired of feeding that damn fish...he was always looking at me like i should give him more. then all day long he would eyeball me and it kinda creeped me out. |

Strange, mismatched feet; enlarged evil right foot; and the sudden, unexpected passing of a beloved fish . . . . . Coincidence? I think not.
It's been great following your blog during the deployment, but I am glad that it is coming to a close (as I am sure you and so many others are too.)
 Yeah for you guys coming home soon! |

I am SO excited to see you...even if you are coming back with mis-matched feet! 
RIP Chickenhawk.  |
