After a wonderful few weeks at home in beautiful Oregon, it's back to work. The trip back to Afghanistan wasn't so bad, just a bummer since I knew where I was going. It was pretty rough leaving home for the second time in 4 months, but after being here for awhile I'm getting back into the swing of things. Here are a few pics from the last month:
Waiting to head back out .
We strictly follow the "tread lightly" policy and afford great care when landing with our Chinook in people's fields making sure not to "damage" any crops or buildings!
Interesting find when we landed after one of our night missions...
Turns out this little guy (a bat) didn't fare too well against the mighty Chinook! He only THOUGHT he was getting a huge meal that night... didn't quite work out the way he planned it!
Moving the satellite... of course the most important part of the deployment!
Brilliant planning by the Air Force and the Army. We moved about 50 yards so they can tear down our current B-huts. We'll be moving again soon... so they can tear these down.
