Thanks guys! Actually the Rhino belongs to the Air Force guys. They know nothing about MAN TARS.......
Their machines are the gravel road queens. They really only use those for guard duty on the FOB so they don't really need heavy duty tires. They run those things silly and do zero maintenance. The Rhino takes a lickin and keeps on tickin

Thanks Chris for all you do!

Noticed your Rhino has a heater -- if these Air Force guys uphold their traditions, they'll be figuring out how to put an air conditioner on their Rhino...

Air Force -- the service where the NCOs send the Officers off to do battle...

Hell, I would put an a/c in the Rhino if I could. I rode in a Kubota utility machine with air and heat and it was amazing. However, it is a farm machine and not meant for trails.

I take nothing away from the AF. The pilots are really crucial to supporting the guys on the ground. I do think it is BS that they do 4 month deployments when the Army and Marines do 12-15 months. But that is another discussion altogether.

I really appreciate all the people that serve or have served in the armed forces. But i really would like to know which air base has its pilots fly over our cabin/camper up in morgan county. If they were to fly any lower they would be shuckin acorns out their jets exhaust.

And yes smoochies to Airborne

Hey Chris, we really do appreciate evrything you do as a Soldier. Now it's time to come on home. You were only supposed to go for 3 or 4 years.

Gunny, Airborne is my Brother, I mean come back to WV. I served 21 Years so I think I covered my whole family. I'm still serving. I'm a contractor for the Army. I just don't want him deployed any more. He's got too many things to do back here. He's served his time. The problem is, once it get's in your blood it's hard to quit.

went thru west virginia last week and i cant see anybody staying away from that beautiful state for long. I am willing to trade memphis for Harpers Ferry

Chris, I do appreciate what you are doing for our country. I hope you get to stay over here. I served with the 101st Airborne myself from 75-77. I went through Clarksville last year. It doesn't look like the same place I remember. I even got my uniform out the other day. It seems to have shrunk somehow.

Bob, I don't think Tennessee could afford to pay the boot required... maybe we could get Mississippi to just take over payments on Memphis... :)

Hey Badride, What unit in the 101st I was in 2/44 ADA. Ft. Campbell is where Airborne got his first Army Expierience. I had him stay with me at Ft. Campbell for a couple of weeks, about 7 years before he joined the Army.
