WHOA, Tonkin!!!

You're auxiliary, right?

What's with the Warrant Officer Rank, Bro?!?!?!?

Congrats!!!

[LaDivaLoca]

Thanks for the links. I will check them out.

But for now, it's time for me to check out of the Canteen and rest my aching feet. Good night, everyone, God bless you all. See you tomorrow at Camp-run-A-Muck! LOL!

You're auxiliary, right?

Yes

What's with the Warrant Officer Rank, Bro?!?!?!?

NOT Warrant Officer, Flotillia Staff Officer. Rank equal of Ensign.

I guess Rosie and me will go to bed.

Ok, I'm back for a bit. I'd closed my e-mail box for a while because it was somewhat depressing to see that empty in-box. Something told me to open it and there were a bunch of e-mails from overseas!! WOOOHOOO! Looks like it may be down again but at least it was up for a little while.
Nick, on the "Connie", sent this in his e-mail and I thought it was pretty darned good and worth sharing:

Equal to an ensign, huh? Even better!

"Equal to an ensign, huh? Even better! "

Ensign lowest officer ranking.
Everyone knows Warrant Officers and Chiefs are the real backbone!

HI TONK!!!
*HUG*

Isn't that lil kitty adorable? LOL!! Cote sent that a while back and I immediately put it in my "closet". I love that lil kitty. Right now, I could easily flake out like that, too. LOL!!!

Let's see, tomorrow is "helo ops night" isn't it? I hope the weather's calmed down enough to be able to get out there.

[HiJinx]

Oh, I know who's the backbone...
I just think it's neater that you-know-what that you carry the equivalent of officer rank...even if it is a low as an army butter-bar!

[Kathy in Alaska]

Beach, I love your dancing pig! Doing good. Did you get your cars all washed and spiffed up? Wanna do mine next?

[GulfWar1Vet]

Hey, all. I got pics of "demonstraters" in my hometown. They had a parade and a rally last weekend.

Here is a link:http://briefcase.yahoo.com/raptureron

:)

If anyone in Columbia has pics, please post!

[HiJinx]

Well, time for this one to head for bed...
See everyone tomorrow at Camp Run-A-Muck!!!

[radu]

Hi Diva! I've really missed everyone, that's for sure.

My back's doing better but I'm still taking it slow. Much as I love 'em, no dips on the dance floor for me tonight! LOL!! I don't know how I'll ever catch up on this fun thread but I'm giving it a shot. My e-mail in-box seems to have quieted down again. It was very sweet of my pen pals to send out a quick "hello" while the opportunity was there. What specil people they are.

Now to start dancing my way through the thread. LOL! What I've seen so far has been fun!!

[GulfWar1Vet]

TOM! LOL!

Uh, no!

I might scare some people. :D
