That'll work and do me a big favor--send me your address in a Pm so i'll have it for sure--i'll be checking in awhile to see if I do, but --just in case--please resend it again.
Fort Leonard Wood--I had a few friends who went through basic there--one bacame a Combat Engineer, the other eventually became Combat Air Assault.
Fort Bragg--well at least if you go to Bragg now--the temperatures shouldnt be too bad but I know during the summer--its pure hell there.

Well Steve, what can i say, youve been the only person that has been able to answer my questions in the Free Military quiz consistantly. I will miss you.
Fort Leonard Missouri? I dont think thats too far from St. Charles. Maybe I 'shell' your barracks.

Steve, good luck where-ever you go. Looking forward to see you back here. If you're at Fort Bragg and run into S/Sgt. Lewis of(I believe) 2nd Batt., 505 PIR/82nd AB, say Hi to him from me!
Keep your feet and knees together!
