Back at you. Another interesting commentary. For what it is worth, the ones going to Cuba or Gitmo should or will have it better than staying stateside. Thirty thousand to Gitmo? That base is not that big. I was stationed there for nine months.

Not a bad place to be. Kind of primitive in 1970. The officers and Staff Sergeants+ left me alone and I ran my own group fixing communications near the fence.

Hey, Bill, thanks as ever. Had no idea you were down there. You know, it sounded like a lot but despite myself I just thought, wow, 30,000. I need a better vaccine for this bullshit.

I do read your posts. I do what to make sure someone talks to you even if it is BS in your mind.

I have been a few places most people would not or could not venture too.

Seen many things and been in many places in my travels. It is hard to remember them all. Burned through a passport in one year. At times I think about them, what I have done, and how I should have recorded my ventures carefully.

This was well before and during The Fray. At times, I feel like Rutger Hauer at the end of Blade Runner.

Waiting on the VA to recognize what they did to me 50+ years ago at Camp Lejeune.

Reach out to me if you need help.
