Title: Great News: Almost home ...........
Post by: I_want_an_Omega on 18 March 2013, 17:35:04
THE boy is on his way home from Afghan after his 3rd tour  :y

No injuries this time & currently in Cyprus for a couple of days R&R soaking up the sun and a few beers.

So, it's time to get out the fatted calf & celebrate in the Lincs household  :y

Great news :y :y

Well, it's the one he has just finished. Will he be going back, who knows ..... I think he has the next few months mapped out in terms of leave, training etc so we will wait and see.

Good news indeed.One of my sons-in-law is in the army and he came back from his Afghan tour last year,and a great relief it was too,so I can relate to your emotions at this time.

Well, that's straying into a politicial debate which isn't appropriate to those serving - IMHO of course, and therefore off limits for this post - please folks. The numbers are reducing, but I think there will be some UK military presence there for many more years to come.

That is good news :y

When I came back last year through Cyprus the weather was lovely but the wine was utter crap.  Although after 6 months without I still drank very single drop  ;D

I sailed the s#!t out of the dinghies at the beach, although the funniest moment was watching one of the junior subalterns who had forgotten to pack civilian attire, we mashed up something from spaer clothing donated by several blokes of different sizes and som of the women too ;D ;D
